Chickadee on Winter Wildflower

[Caroline Darmo]

Nikon D200, Nikon 70-200 VR + TC 1.7
1/350 @ F/7.1, ISO 400. Evaluative metering, EC + 0.7.

Wish I had more DOF on the perch but I like the sweet expression on the bird.

Superb. You might desturate the blotchy red noise in the tail, primes and secs. Otherwise pretty near perfect.

[Caroline Darmo]

Thanks Adrian, is this better?

Caroline, Really sharp details! Lovely HA and perch! Just Wonderful!

[John Blumenkamp]

A beautiful image Caroline... great detail and pose, and I love that background. If anything, maybe a little more room right, but that is very minor. Excellent work... wish it were mine.

Looks good to me...it wasn't a huge issue for me but one which I thought might be pointed out.

[Dan Walker]

Great deatil and pose and I love those background colors. Nice image.

A lovely comp and nice job on the exposure Caroline

[DanWalters]

Very nice. Really like the unique comp and the soft light really brings out the colors.
