Though I can't see your name, I have this strange feeling that I've commented on your work before. Once again, great detail and focus. Nice balance and positioning! Love the vivid colors!

Comment from Cephus


Well composed - great placement of the subject with a soft background that enhances the bird. Excellent sharpness, good subject pose that shows off the bird quite well. All of the colors work well, the yellow/green background works well with the bird. Nice eye catchlight.

Deserves more than the fine if can give it.

Excellent photograph I like the brighter male colors. The focus, lighting, initial impact, center of interest, and composition are all very good. good luck in the contest. Dave

This is just beautiful and certainly is the color yellow. Good luck in the contest and I think you have a very good chance.

This is a really nice capture of a bright, yellow goldfinch. I like the framing, focus and positioning on the branch. Really great shot!

You have to love the Goldfinch, pretty birds for sure. Your detail in the feathers are very nicely seperated, your lens has very good optics put pull that through. Good action shot.

This is such a beautiful bird and an excellent picture of him. I Like the way you caught him on the branch like this. The green background sure makes him stand out. Lighting, focus and overall impression are all excellent.

It is so hard to get a great picture of a wild bird. This is excellent. I love the detail of the bird and limbs. They are clear and crisp. I like the unfocused green background. It really makes the bird pop. I think it is totally unfair that the males are more beautiful in nature. Oh well, we as humans do have make-up.
