Well I like this - makes a change from a bird on a stick

Hi John

Well I like it! Nicely composed, eye immediately drawn to the redstart and strong colours. To be honest, if the fence hadn't come around towards you on the right, I don't think that this would have worked (a bit static), but like this you get the repeating patterns which don't overwhelm the bird.

I like this from a creative standpoint a lot John, especially because the wire is 'wavy' - very nice

The only thing that I find slightly 'iffy' is the bokeh on the wire beyond the post, just a bit too well defined - perhaps just run a blur brush down that left side to soften those edges a bit.

Nice concept and well executed John

Agree with both Mark & Andy. The fence leads the eye to the bird.

Hi John,

As always good and sharp. I stay jealous

Thanks for your interest.

Like this a lot, the fence is something different and brings to mind "man's impact on nature" type debates

Excellent use of DOF here John. Leads you straight to the bird and the colour is superb too.

It's different and I like it!! As said - brilliant depth of field, great colours!

I must say that I am starting to find these shots with the man-made surroundings a really pleasant change from all the usual stuff. This is an excellent use of the whole frame John.
