    Photographed in March in Alviso, CA. Wish I had gone for more DOF to have the tail in focus too but light was low and I wanted to have the OOF background. Can't always have everything. :o

    Thanks for looking. JR

    Hi John,

    I agree with your self critique, but the exposure and detail that you have captured in the feathers is excellent. I would have gone for some more space around the subject as well.

    Cheers

    The eye and head are nice and sharp. I find the lower right protruding oof perch, distracting, but think it is an overall nice behavior image....and I would be thrilled to see "Just an Anna"

    Hey John, nice light, preening pose, and exposure. Tack sharp. I would lose the white thing in the URC.

    I've been swarmed with these guys lately.

    The behaviour, the BG and the details are all great. Agree with your self critique. Also, I too would have more room all around.

    Ditto own critique. Head is however sharp & I like the feather detail, colours & BG.
