Junco
Hi all hope you had a good week ,weather here is on the downside a bit it's getting colder .We have had heavy frost for the last three days. Nothing really exciting this week.I have a few Junco's at my feeder so heres one ,im not to happy with the BG but maybe i can do better on the weekend if we can get some sunshine :)
Check the length of the claws on this guy lol.
Hi Glenn- do you have some tech details for this shot?
:)
I do like the position of the bird on the perch. I think it's interesting. I agree about the BG (the spot is distracting) maybe tone down just the spot. I don't mind the dark BG for this bird, I think it adds a little drama to the image
Glenn,
I really like the feel of this image and the position of the bird in the frame is quite interesting. For me I wish the birds face/eye stood out a bit more as it is I keep going to the birds feet, cool feet BTW.
Don't mind the bg at all Just wish for a different pose. I like the feather detail and sharpness !!!
Hi Glenn, you have sharp details and good color rendition, would like this one on a vertical crop...:cool:
I think the same. I also like the atmosphere of this shot. I'm wondering though if you could tone down the flash reflection on the bird's toes and the perch :)Originally Posted by Alfred Forns

OK i did a bit of editing , i started with toning down the flash on the perch and claws then i gave it a vert crop and then burned the spot on the BG As for the pose Alfred i have a side profile that i will post up later.
Oh i almost forgot Lance this was taken with a D80 and a 70-300mm Vr at 300mm 1/200sec iso 200 Focal 7.1 .
Thanks for taking the time to comment Guys its appreciated :)
I think you may have overdone the left side of the bird a bit, i.e., now it's too dark and I think the original is better in that respect. I somehow also find that kind of bright, yellowish spot in the background makes the entire original photo looks brighter. But it's likely just me ;)
Hi Glen,
I like the pose and the BG, rotated the bird and tried a crop. Like your pic. Just to give you some ideas:)
