You have a house wall as a reflector? That's class, I must remember to paint my house white Good shot btw, not always easy to get the eye of coal tits to show as well as you have managed here.
Hi John
Beautiful shot, perfectly executed. Nice light, catchlight, everything going for it, no nits! What is a nit by the way, I assume it's a minor imperfection or something! If it is this image doesn't have any.

Hi John, nice to see these guys and well executed. Saw something similar recently on another Forum, but this is streets ahead of of that, but I do feel it might be a slightly oversharpened based on the log IMHO.
BTW, am I missing something in the title John, 'Cole tit', I thought you were referring to something from 'xfactor'?

Super detailed image John and although sometimes large perches don't work for these. on this occasion the age and ruggedness work in it's favour.
