Whats For Lunch?
Good evening all, I haven't posted for a while. Mother In Law has been very ill and needed surgery. Weather has been rubbish of late, and the light even worse(in South Wales anyway). I took this image last June, and it was an absolute pleasure to see this Male Chaffinch feed it's young in front of me. The image is full frame, and has been sharpened slightly, and a little noise reduction applied in CS3. All comments most welcome!!!!!!!!!! :wavey:

Canon 50D, Sigma 150-500mm lens.

A super piece of natural history photography... certainly looks to be a demanding youngster, I might just trim a little from the top and right hand side, I think a more central comp might work.....

Thanks for sharing...

Great composition and perfect background. Looks a little bright on my monitor.

They are like neighbours talking over the back fence...
Not too bright to me, and maybe a little more centred would help a little?
But it's kind of comical and I like everything else about this picture :wink:

nice interaction - perhaps a square crop would suit better?

cheers
