    Love the touch of snow, nice BG, and great job on the exposure!

    Just a tiny bit more of a head turn might have made it even better.

    Jim,

    I played around with some crops and feel that if you take some off the bottom and left positions the bird less in the center. Something to take a look at.

    Jim I like the light, the perch, BG and DOF. The bird`s sitting a little high in the frame for my preference of composition. That being said i`ts nice to see a junco on a perch instead of on the ground.

    I like the inclusion of the snowy perch and feel the crop is fine along with seeing so much of the perch. Excellent detail and I like the slight head turn.

    Hi Jim excellent exposure and detail, love the touch of snow on the perch but also feel that a little can be cropped from the bottom.

    Jim, The sharp details, pose, perch and background all came together very nicely.
