Nice job, Allen. I like the way the cactus ribs and spines make leading lines for the bird. Excellent depth of field.

Really nice job on the perch, pose, and background. I might lighten the shadowed area a little bit to bring out more detail.

Nice work Allen. Love the cactus and the pose from the Cactus Wren. The clean sky makes this work even better too.

Excellent DOF control. A slightly greater head turn would be better, but this works
