    Another image taken from my mini feeder setup in my garden. The BG is a large leaf from a shrub in the garden.

    Lovely light quality, and I like the way it illuminates the bird's head. You've got most of the bird sharp, although I might selectively sharpen the tip of the beak. Nice BG too. I'd be tempted to crop a little off the top.

    The BG is somewhat distracting, but you have really nice detail here and I like the light on his head.

    I love the way the light leads you to that eye! And I also love the BG in this one! Congrats!

    I would work on the diagonal line in the BG on the left. Lovely light though and pose! Your set-up rocks mate! :)

    Very nice light and great exposure. I love the pose and the detail in the plumage. Looks sharp on my monitor. Well done.
