Welcome Joe. I am a relative newbie here too, since last summer. And a fellow Michigander. Just beginning to try and capture the little flitting feathery friends.
Regading your first post - sweet. Nice isolation and separation. You should learn rather quickly about posting a larger file so members can see your images larger and appreciate it better.

Beautiful first post, Joe..one of my favorite birds!
Reminder for everyone....720 pixels is the max size in this forum, so Joe did post the largest allowed size. Thank you for adhering to the guidelines, Joe!
Welcome!
Beautiful post, especially for the first one!
The natural framing around the bird is excellent.

Welcome aboard, Joe! I agree with all that's been said. I like how the branches help frame the bird. Normally I would not 'bulls eye' the bird in the center of the frame, but with the branches here, it works. Well done and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work. We need more voices and more posters here in the MWNP and from the past several weeks, it looks like we're doing great!
