Nice view of this lkiitlke lady. Great pose with that head-turn, and nice berry.
The whole image seems a little dark, and might be lightened up a bit. A program like Viveza would selectively lighten the dark areas of the bird, and reclaim a lot of detail. (Free trial on the website, if you wanted to see what this amazing program can do)

really nice pose and comp, Eric. is that a ladybug that it's got? tough to judge at this size, but it looks like the focus may be sharper on the back than head.

Brightness looks fine to me as well. I like the posture and head turn but agree about the point of focus.

I agree with Richard, plus the background is wonderful.

Nice, Eric. I like the Lady Beetle in the bill, and the lighting is good too. It almost looks like you could sharpen just the head area a little more and call it finished IMO.

Nice perch, clean BG and head turn and I like the bug. A larger post would help with determining sharpness.
