Reed Bunting
Canon 350D handheld Sigma 50mm-500mm @ 417mm TV 1/250 AV 5.6 ISO 100
A chance encounter as with most of my effort. Some come to pass in my eye. Very interested to know other views or advice.

Raw to lightroom the PS3 to resize for posting. Still trying to get to grips with adjustments a long way to go.

Critique and Comments most welcome.

Thanks

lovely enviro image, but looks a tad dark on mine here, could be me though

It does look a tad dark-adjust the levels and it will be a good un, I would crop to get the bird away from the centre of the frame-Th beak full of seed is an added bonus

A bit of judicious cropping and a bit more light will make this a lovely shot.
