Beautiful image...well done

[Doug Brown]

You couldn't ask for better light! Super sharp, with great color. Perhaps a slightly tighter crop, but that's about it.

[Scott Grant]

1/20th? wow!

stunning image BTW!

Simply Amazing in all departments!!

[Aidan Briggs]

Wonderful. Love the light, pose and sharpness. Perhaps a little tighter crop. I'm stunned at the sharpness you got from 1/20 sec.

[Lance Peters]

Stunning - nothing else to say. :)

[Doug Brown]

I never even noticed the shutter speed. Well done!

[Joanna Trescott]

What a beautiful robin. Simply well done. Great sharpness, head turn and exposure. I like the crop.

[Mark Schmitt]

Evidently an overcast day. The light is even and diffuse. No hard contrashading. Can't add anything to what has been said. A real keeper.

[Mike Tracy]

I wouldn't change a thing except maybe tone down the white highlight where your watermark is.

Awesome image of the bird itself.

[Simon Bennett]

All round fine image - I like the pose, eye contact, plumage detail and background.
