After hundreds of photographs and several days of standing out in the cold, I finally managed to get a photograph which I had seen in my minds eye.
When I first had a camera last year my Dad bought me a magazine and in it was a photograph of a Robin in flight which I thought was absolutley beautiful, never in my life would I have thought that one day I would be able to get an image like that.... I know that this isnt as good as the image I saw, But I am rather pleased with it all the same :)
Love the action you captured in this image Jacqui and excellent timing. Very pretty pose with good eye contact and I like the touch of blur in the wings suggesting the movement in the wings. The only nit for me and it is a small one and that is the white on the head looks a tad hot on my monitor. Congratulations on getting this image and thanks for sharing.
Wow, excellent IMO. Very sharp and the wing blur gives it a sense of motion. A bit more room on the left side would be nice, or maybe crop up toward the tail might even be more to my liking. Very pretty photo.
A beautiful capture here Jacqui and you should be very pleased with the result. The exposure is spot on, a catch-lite in that dark eye (an "empty" eye socket is a pet aversion of mine) and just enough movement in wing tips to convey the braking action. Very well done indeed !!!
Great tit
