Hi Susan.. Such a beautiful little bird made all the more attractive by a skilled photographer.

Every aspect of this frame is of the highest quality for sharpness, resolution, color accuracy and eye appeal - very well done.

What I find special about this remarkable shot is the depth of the 'focal box'. The bird and just enough branches behind it are in sharp focus - the focal box backed by a matching bokeh.

Nice work ma' lady... Bob

I love when I see pictures of these beautiful birds. They almost look like they are posing for the picture with the "Get my good side". Excellent capture of the Chaffinch, you see all the details and pretty feathers on the bird. Thank you for sharing!

A lovely shot of this beautiful bird with a fluffy belly, looking straight at you. Its obviously taken in the winter months, so there is a lack od color.....but you have no control over that. Overall a nice shot of this cute bird.

    Michele,
    Thanks a million for your complementary review on this female Chaffinch. The male Chaffinch is more colourful with a pink breast. Most female birds are less colourful than the male so they can sit on her eggs unnoticed by other birds & rats that could pose a treat.

Susan a new arrival at the Fuchsia bush in your back garden, I see. A neutral color easily merges into the Fuchsia area but is still well hidden. Than you for sharing this wonderful female Chaffinch. Ray

Hi Susan - this is a very nice capture of the Chaffinch perched in the bush. The dark limb acts as a natural leading line to carry our eyes to that sweet little finch. The limb also creates nice depth in the scene; allowing the little one to be the main attraction as it stands out nicely from the natural environment. Very Nice.

Another good looking nature image presented here! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us a very enjoyable view of that lovely bird and its branch. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Nicely done!
