Just received my Sony A1, but then had no light to work with until yesterday (monsoon season). Natural BG and light at Madera Canyon feeders in AZ. I know this is a bit tight, but I didn't feel like adding canvas to this one. Cropped a tad from the right and bottom for balance.
Beautifully done. Amazingly so without flasph and with a natural background!
Mazel tov on your a1.
with love, artie

Looking good Kurt....The colours and detail look real good here....IQ is nice, but personally I would prefer a wee bit more room around the bird...Perfect pose ...The dark BG shows the bird at its best.
