Dark Eyed Junco

Gallery: AvianPosted November 19, 20153,510 views7 comments

This Junco landed on rose bush just long enough for about three frames. I liked the pose and the light I had to work with. Not much done to the image, it's about 60% of FF.

Thanks for looking, comments & suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Steve,

I like the pose, the light and the clean background. Technically it looks also good. I may have consider a diffent crop placing the bird a bit more to the right, but that is a matter of personal taste.

Sweet image Steve, like the body posture and head angle, just not a lover of the perch.
