One from a garden session a few weeks ago, with some last snow.
Nikon D80 @ 420 mm, iso 250, f5,6, 1/125 sec. on a tripod.

Hi Sandra, nice atmospheric picture.

I like the composition with the way the perch leads the viewers eye straight up towards the bird.
The falling rain adds an extra, and welcome, dimension too.

Love the 'small' in frame composition

looks great IMO and very different to the close view of these birds,very strong compositon with the perch and very good atmosphere created by the snow

Super atmospheric image Sandra.

I love the boldness and courage of the composition - the rain just adds some more class to an already very engaging shot

Not too much wrong with that Sandra

Small in frame works for me.

Nice bird detail Sandra but I find the perch takes over a little bit.

I quite like the perspective of this one and the rain adds something too. Tristan

A lovely shot Sandra, just that little bit different, and the background colour is nice. I like the composition very much.

Very nicely composed, all the elements have come together to make a really appealing image
