    Orange-crowned Warbler - November 3, 2010

    My local patch often attracts these birds, as it holds blooming flowers and insects late into the season. As the tundra breeding Orange-crowned Warblers are the last warbler sp. to head south, we get these birds regularly between late October and late December.

    Very sweet, Ryan. I love the soft light, pose and colours in the image. I may slightly darken the brightest colours LLC. I like the impression of habitat from the sharp and OOF upright stalks.

    I really like the setting here. Looks like you've had a play with the thing in the foreground bottom right corner? I'd see if I could remove it completely to tidy things up.
    The soft light is very nice.

    Ryan,

    I would like to suggest an alternate crop. Rule of Thirds with the right vertical like along the stalk the bird is clutching.

    I like that you capture this in the wild w/o a setup or attractants.

    Depending upon how you feel about the diagonal stalk on the left, that could be eliminated.
