One taken earlier in the year, very smart little birds.

I know get rid of the border!

Get rid of the border :biggrin:

A nice one, but appears a touch soft, I would also have placed the bird higher in the frame and lost the orphan twig at the bottom...

Its a good idea to include the techs, makes it a lot easier to give advice, a little bit of work and you have a very nice image here..

Andy - you said it :biggrin: :wink:

I can see where Phil is comming from regarding the comp, but I can see why you've cropped it the way you have - all a matter of personal taste in this case as I don't think either is ostensibly wrong (did I just type ostensibly??) jeeesh... :eek:

Without the border the image is a bit small and it looks a tad high on contrast and a bit oversaturated on my monitor but it's a nice pose and well lit:toast:
