    Just finally going back through files from the spring. This is my favorite of the bunches I have of this species. There was a single stick right on the edge of a grassy field that he picked to sing from which gave a great green BG.

    The light on this is just magical! Amazing pose and the action is fantastic. All the tech - spot on. Just one thing...what is the little white line right behind the head on the back of the neck? Just found it a little distracting and could be cleaned up. Also a similar line beneath the bottom leg. Very minor because this image is gorgeous!! Congrats Bryan!

    The white line from what I can tell when looking at a larger version is an out of place feather. Or maybe he flew through a spider web or something?? :)
    I can easily clean that up, so thanks for the catch.

    Overall very nice and clean! Good vertical comp and singing pose. I've seen many images of warblers (and other small songbirds) where there is a single feather sticking out behind the head - kinda natural but I too would be inclined to remove it.
