Excellent. Seriousley bloody good. YOur not going to get a better closeup than this with this kinda detail. From the array of coloured stones to the blades of green. Very sharp stuff. Composition is very good. Focus again excellent. LOvely colours and light has been controlled very well

This is one of my most favorite birds. They are so pretty and I like their song.

This little guy can be gone so very fast. And be back just as fast.

Good work willie, I like it very much.

Initial Impact: Well you did a fine job. I guess if you pour out enough food they will come. Some of that looks a bit big for him. Lighting: is very nice. Chickidee bird presentation: Color harmony: very nice. Center of interest: is the head, but the feathers deserve some notice. Cropping: is good. Focus: sharp. Action: None.
Depth of field: has blurred out the background very nicely.
Story telling is in the Title and Artist's notes:
Comments: Good composition.

Great shot Willie, How far were you from this? I presume when you say a blind, its what we call in the U.K. A Hide. It looks like what we call a Coal Tit.

    I am about five feet away using a 140/600 equiv.mm lens. I call it a blind, it is just an old cheap tarpolian wraped around three poles with a hole to fit my lens. Thanks a lot for the high rating.

    I thought you were closer than me, I am about twenty feet with an 55-250mm zoom.
