Hi Roger. Nice looking goldfinch. Image looks a little overexposed, and composition rather centered. Giving more room in front and a bit below would improve the comp. Is this a big crop? Looks like the fine detail is lost..but still has a somewhat oversharpened look to it. Nice colour in the BG (but it could use some noise reduction) - good job lining up with the distant pine tree!
