This image of a Blue Tit was taken last Saturday morning, while it was still reasonably bright! I was tempted to crop a little from the LHS, but decided to leave it full frame. Any C&C's are most welcome.
I don't think it needs cropping from the left Paul, it looks fine as it is. Nice perch and I quite like the graduated background.

Lovely, nice tonal graduation on the BG too.
The Blue Tit scientific name is now Cyanistes caeruleus, the changes (a result of Mitochondrial DNA testing I believe) have affected most Tits, the Great Tit is the only Parus genus left among the UK species.
Nice one Paul, the size of the bird in the frame is fine by me, my only slight nit is that I am not fond of the head angle, you have the eye contact but I would have prefered a slight turn away to more of an anterior/lateral view.... but that is personal and subjective...

Hi Paul,
Looks great in all aspects, I don't mind the head position.
Cheers,
Lewis.
