Hi Jack

Very nice - I feel it may have worked better in the landscape format when you wouldn't have chopped the berries on the right in half but that is a minor nit!

Great colour and detail but the comp isnt quite working for me. Perhaps david is right re landscape?

funnily enough Jack if you crop off the left hand side berries still leaving those on the right itstill then might work in portrait mode.

Despite the comp nits that have been mentioned it is still a great shot.. Good DOF and detail where it needs to be.

Very nice GT shot, pity about the berries on the right hand edge as I like the way they enclose the bird :smile:
