Corn Bunting

This image was taken about a year ago. This species was one of my targets of that trip and I was really happy with what I got :)

And you should be happy with this lovely portrait, Jan. Good detail on bird's head, nice head angle, perch and BG. A round of NR on the BG would make the bird pop even more. Could you post the f/stop and shutter speed? TFS!

I believe it was F11 and 1/320

I see the little noise now, too. Must have come in when I resized the image from a larger webversion I had previously processed...

Very striking light, composition and calling pose. Perch a plus and I like that you left the piece of leaf at the border.

Corn Buntings are cool. I love them.
The image is great. I like the warm light, the perch and the open bill. BG is perfect.

Looks like its having a singing contest with your avatar!! :-)

Nice comp, perch, and great light. I'm with Fabs about liking the leaf you kept in the corner...nice touch.

Loved the setting and the singing pose....

Nice bird and singing pose. Killer BG and light. Like your composition also.
