Excellent composition, image and capture Lady Denise,
I like it very much as presented. You have very sharp details and superb color rendition. The head angle and eye contact are dead on. I like the Crystal clear eye. The arch perch gives the image a nice touch. The multi-tone pastel background compliments your subject very nicely. well done...:):cool:
Nice image! Good pose, great detail. I like the soft light. The background works well with the bird. I normally do not like images with man made materials but I think it works very well in this image. I agree that the beak might present better if desaturated a little. Oh, both post are nice but I agree with Harold that I think I like your original the best.
I like the original over the re-post. Lovely, lovely image - sharp, good detail, nice composition, maybe a tad dark but only a tad.
Denise your songbird images are so wonderful, I encourage you to try placing a stick or whatever near the feeders to see if you can get the bird in a more natural setting. Seems like the next step....maybe ...just a thought
Cheers
Gail
Oscar, I posted a similar shot in hand of man-just diff. pose,same perch.
Gail, I have trees , logs,etc. near my feeders-This was shot on the side of my house-no where near feeders.That's my luck for you(I had one of these wrapped in pine branches w/ pinecones near feeders)
