What a nice photo you have captured here Susan. The side lighting works so well highlighting this lovely Chaffinch.

The placement in the frame is good being off center to the left. The branch makes for a good framing element further drawing attention to the bird.
The focus is sharp and he colors are natural. Nicely done Susan ~ Steve

This really would have been a nice wildlife shot Susan of this chaffinch and i know you do a lot of these photos but it needs a tweak to sharpen this pity because the dof is good...Brian

This is a very nice shot of the lady chaffinch. Lovely focus and clarity with a great muted background, nicely perched on a branch, and positioned slightly off center. A nice capture.

Great shot here Susan of a Lady Chaffinch. She looks to be enjoying the sun before a busy day of foraging. Good colours and exposure. Good focus and clarity. Well done and thanks for sharing :-)

A very cute visual present here of this little bird sitting amongst the branches. I love that little bit of light that comes from the left side. Composition shades, tones colors, and overall presentation is very well done thank you for sharing.

Comment from Kathy Banich


Hi Susan - your image of this little Chaffinch has really caught her sweet, vulnerable, innocent disposition in the way she has her head tilted for this natural portrait. One can only imagine a cloudy sky, whereas the sun was beginning to pop through, allowing that lovely hint of light and warmth on her left side. That said, even with the lower light on her right, that twinkle in her eye still shines through. You have framed this nicely by allowing a nice visual of the branch of the limb to ascend up in the frame, adding even more interest to the image. Nice!

A good looking nature image presented here! Your fine and classical composition gives us an enjoyable view of that beautiful bird and its location. Colours, textures and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well taken!

Sweet little bird perched on the thick branch of the fuchsia, she is right in the sunbeam.
Well captured with good focus, this image is clear, good use of the light.
Colors and tones appear natural. Well composed allowing a good sense of her location.
Well presented!
