Hi All,
Firstly apologies for being inactive of late but work has been extremely busy, which has left me no time at all for photography This Goldfinch is one from a few weeks back.
All comments welcome

I like this - great perch, background and bird. The slight headturn makes the front on pose work for me.
A great shot, the perch is what you would select if working at a feeding station, its that good, so to get it from a car is all the better.
The head turn and the catch light really makes this shot, but you knew that. The pose well you could ask for no more, as from this viewpoint, any OOF parts of the bird are shielded from view.
A truly excellent shot and a great capture, well seen and taken. Everything is right on the button technically.

Superbly lit, the red has a wonderful glow on my monitor and the overall colouration is superb. No nits, just a beautiful shot.
