Song Sparrow

OK lets try something different this time. I tried to recompose this bird. Did I leave too much room now to right? Would overall tighter crop work better?

As usually all other comments are highly appreciated.

Hi Mikko - like the singing pose and the catchlight in the eye - Would have wished for more even lighting on the subject, front of the bird is in shadow.
For my personal tastes I think there is a little too much negative space on the right - could just be me though.
I would try and get the sun at your back before you start and then look for opportunities.
Keep em coming :)

Hi Mikko,

I like the catchlight and the pose. I agree with Lance about too much negative space. Good advice regarding the shadow and direction of light.
