Crested tit from the forest
While waiting for the Buzzard to arrive I spend my time shooting this wonderful bird.

Edwin, simple and extremely effective. Maybe one centimetre more on the left.

Nice clean and simple, an excellent capture.

Superb image. Good warm light, nice perch & background. Good looking bird & I like the comp as it is.

Lovely shot nicely composed and executed :toast:

Have to disagree with Roy I think it should be 1.15 centimetres to the left :wink:

Yes, lovely image with striking comp. Superb background. I agree about a little more on the left, and perhaps a little less of the trunk on the right :smile:

Superb. Lovely colours and comp Edwin.
Works nicely with a bit off the top to make it a pano as well IMO.

A bit of CW rotation to make the main trunk vertical, add a bit of canvass left of the perch end and the suggested pano crop Ed - that's what I'd do matey.

Nice as it is though :wavey: :wavey:

A lovely composition.

Beautiful shot, very artistic, lovely subtle colours. Perhaps a tiny bit more room to the left, but I can't make my mind up!

Hi Edwin, I keep coming back to this to decide whether or not it works for me and I think it does.. However, If the bird was only turned a little more so that it is completely parallel and I do find it a little to warm.. Other than that it's 'artistic' and outside the box and that's really why it works..

Thanks for sharing..
