Dunnock singing
hello to you all, I,ve been watching all of the beautiful photos on UKNP for a while and love it because they are often the same species like we have overhere in the Netherlands
20D, 500mm, 1.4x, f8, 1/500

Hi Chris - nice image, especially like the dunnock singing :toast: :toast:

If I were to be super critical I'd say I wasn't too keen on the big lump of oof spruce tree as it does tend to drag the eye, but it would be impossible to clone out and no f-number on a 500 would have given enough DoF to get it sharp :frown:

So, nice image Chris - look forward to seeing a lot more :wavey: :wavey:

Regards

Andy

Welkom and good first post Chris. Your composition is balanced and the OOF spruce doesn't distract overly as it is close to the subject.
