Lovely image of a lovely bird, Joe! Exposure and detail are great, and the singing pose is killer. The fencepost isn't perfect, but I think it might help to see a bit more of it. Curious what a vertical 4x5 crop/comp would look like since he could use a bit more room above and below. But loving the details regardless!

processing looks great on this one .

Absolutely spot on with the processing, good behavioural pose.

I think an in-camera original vertical would have been excellent here. Love the BG and the singing pose!

I remember that beautiful background that you can only get from Joe Overstreet.
I must resist a side trip next month(wife will kill me), maybe if I leave early and be back before she wakes up.
