Composition-wise I think the bird can use more room all around. I don't mind the background. Tech-wise I think this photo is under-exposed. Since you used a Canon S5, sharpness and DOF, IMO, shouldn't be an issue. Other than as said, I think it's not a bad first post.
A big welcome to the BPN family Sir,
Your composition is a little bit under exposed, and too tight in frame. I see allot of noise in the background. you have sharp details and a good head angle, with a good sharp eye...I would run some noise reduction in the background and add just a tad of canvas to the left of the frame...a very good first post....once again, welcome to the family...looking forward to more of your compositions...:cool:
Hi, Not sure what your name is or how to address you- but welcome! You have nice details and HA-agree w/ others about exposure and composition-usually you leave more room on the side the bird is looking into-and place him in the rule of thirds,for a better composition- Good job on your first post and the gang will give you lots of help-just keep posting!!!!
Thank you all for the warm welcome. This little guy just popped up while i was shooting the gardens at Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa. Bold, sat there about 8 feet from me without a care that I was there.
I am still working on good exposures. As for background noise I am trying to learn that, all I have now is PSE and Noise Ninja.
I have one more of him I would like to share (assuming it is male :D)
Russell, it is the norm to use real names at BPN....a moderator may contact you about this, or you could contact a mod and make them aware that you need to change your ID.
oh and.........The second mocker has a nice foliage frame
