Blk-capped Chickadee

Sorry I haven't been posting lately. I was doing a lot of on-pine work and went over the limit of our "unlimited" internet, so we've been slowed way down. We get more data tomorrow. Here's one from the blind during a sun break this morning. I liked how it perched out at the end of the branch with the buds included and the nice head turn it gave me.

7Dii, Sigma 150-600 C @ 451 mm, Jobu Gimbal mounted to blind window, f/8, 1/3200, iso 2000, aperture priority, pattern metering, -2/3 EV. Processed in LR & PS CC. Cropped from a horizontal to a 6X7. Full height. Taken this morning at 9:44.

Your comments and critiques are always appreciated.

Thanks,

Comments

Nice pose and background. I'm quite impressed with the detail. I guess, since you and I have the same camera and lens, I can't blame it on my equipment when my photos don't turn out as well as yours. cheeky

One of your recent best, Dennis. The 6x7 aspect works well with the pose. Outstanding detail and superb colors.

Very nice! Detail, exposure, pose, background, color. Nothing to suggest for improvement.

Excellent detail, especially in the LP Dennis, and I love the simplicity of the composition. Very nicely presented. devil

Great pose by the Chickadee Dennis. I love the simplicity of the image and the detail is very sharp. The warm color palette is very nice. Well done!
