    Hi Patricia

    I love the down the throat pose (I forgot how bright it is in there!). Very dynamic. ISO 400 and f8 might have got you the tree stump and back foot in focus.

    Excellent pose and nice soft bg adds to the nice spirit of a robin singing in the garden. Nice lighting. Only down side is the large perch and if robin is a regular visitor it may be an idea to provide a smaller optional perch as well.

    Stunning bird and pose, well exposed with lovely details. If it were mine, I think I would take a tad off of the left and right and make it more of a vertical with the bird still remaining in the left 1/3 of the frame.

    Well composed & captured, Patricia, excellent singing pose, wonderful IQ and color on this! Like the texture to perch, and dark to light gradient of BG at top is nice touch. Great as is, and Marina's makes good suggestion for alternate version.
