Great HA, eye contact, and feather detail. The perch is great! It's uncluttered and allows the viewer's eye to go straight to the subject.

A little more DOF would have helped I think- enough to have more of the body in focus, at least both feet.

Lot's to like here, almost wish the crop was not so tight and he had more head room.

Nice techs.

Hi Joe,
I like it as presented...you have good feather details, a good head ange and sharp eye contact...good show...:cool:

[Bill Dix]

Nicely exposed, with good detail in the whites, blacks and everything in between. Tough to do with chickadees. More DOF might have been nice, but you probably didn't want to reduce the SS and I don't know how the Mark II handles noise with ISO above 400. So all things considered this is nicely done.

Hi - nice exposure, a little tight in the frame for me, good HA and eye contact.
More DOF required - should be good to 1600ISO I would have thought.
