Common Bird Song sparrow

[Don Anderson]

Late afternoon hazy sun, canon 7D 400do with 1.4x f7.1 iso 500 1/800 -.33 stop
Cropped, removed a branch, burned and sharpened some. HH out of suv.

This is very nice Don I like the complimenting bg.

[David Gancarz]

I too like the bg and the subject. Details look a little soft on my monitor -- possibly due to hh with slow shutter speed relative to focal length? I wish the tail wasn't obscured by the branch.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Nice pose, good perch, beautiful BG (although I'd lighten the darkest spot a tad). I agree the fine detail could be brought out more with a bit more sharpening as focus looks good.

[Bill Dix]

Beautiful soft light and BG. Nice pose. Ditto Daniel's comment about lightening the right side of the bird a bit.

[Mike Lentz]

I agree the BG and light make this image a beauty! The heavy crop is where the fine details were lost.

[Rick Dobson]

The bg and lighting give this simple pic a lot of character.

Beautiful one Do, loved the soft feel to this...
