    Hi Jeff, super pose and HA, and just love the curved perch. The finch stands out nicely from the darker BG. I wish she had placed her tail on the other side of the perch, and I would run some NR on the BG.

    Thanks for the comments. I will run some noise reduction on the BG as Stuart suggests.

    I should also say thank you to Alan Murphy for his great book "The Guide To Songbird Set-up Photography". It taught me a lot about getting these little ones to were I need them. This was an impromptu setup near a feeding station.
