    Super sharp view of this little singer. High key lighting really helped you achieve an even exposure across the bird and branches, even with the OOF stuff at back left. Bird is a bit low in the frame, but I suspect you did that to
    include some of the nice foliage above. Love the engaging head angle regardless.

    Good job on the white sky exposure. I like the singing pose. Perfect head angle. Consider removing the leaves at the center of the bottom frame-edge.
