    Lovely shot Ilija. Tack sharp on the head. Good angle too. Not a nit, but the leaf on the left if removed, may strengthen the shot further.

    Yeah the OOF branch distracts a bit, but loved the eye contact and crop.

    I like the pose, together with the slightly raised crest. Good catchlight in the eye, and agree to remove the leaf.

    Very interesting little bird that seems to grab my attention. I remember the last one posted. I like this one better as the detail in the brest seems better controlled.

    Very nice pose with great detail. Agree about removing the leaf on the left. Would also back off on sharpening just a hair.

    Doug, I agree about the sharpening. Jpeg conversion makes the images bit softer I think, so it takes me a bit
    of back and forth experimenting to get it right each and every time.

    Artie,

    From what I've seen so far from Alan, I think I'll be getting the CD book:)
