Willie - this is beautiful - love your details in the bird - just right with the definition of the feathers. Great bokeh and love the bulb in the BG to give the holiday spirit feel. great colors and lighting. nice job!

Love this picture. Not sure how you captured it without the bird flying away or it not being in focus. Love the red bulb and the contrast of the photo is nice. Great Job.

Good framing. Strong initial impact. The red color of the ball tends to take the attention away from the bird. Good focus on the bird.

The red ball was worth the wait. It adds that holiday color, and spices up the photograph considerably. If you just had the bird, it would be a boring photograph. Here the color contrasts with the bird. You also limited your depth of field by using the zoom (more than the aperture setting, in this case apparently, because 9.5 is an average f stop). This allowed you to make the bird the focal point because it is in such sharp focus.
Overall effect -- very good photograph.

In his expression he appears to be sending a message to you of â??trustâ??. You are probably a long term friend of his like. Your photo shows great detail, lighting is great, and the subject is interesting. Nice balance as well. Thanks and Nice Job!

Great shot of this bird. I know how hard it is to get these shots. I'm still trying. Good sharp, crisp, and clear picture. Nice focus on the bird. Well done!

A rather capture here of this little fellow. The red ornament here really does perk up the photo - looks good to me.

I like what you said but you only gave three stars! This sould be at least five stars. You can change it if you want. If something is wrong I wish you would say what it is!
