Its a poser Maggie thats for sure. I almost want it to put that other wing up.
Robins are always the one for doing something different.

Nice pose Maggie although it looks too dark to me but that is easily corrected!

As David says, a tad dark, but I really like the pose. It looks as though it recognises you.:smile:

Nit already covered, otherwise a fine shot. As Major says, you can always rely on a robin to do something interesting.

Hi Maggie,

Nice shot! I agree it looks a bit dark, but easily sorted.

Cheers,

Thanks all for your comments. Have tried re-editing making the image light but it seems to lose some punch/detail. Will keep working on it.

Nice pose, if a little flat, thats the light for you, you could try a dab of fill flash next time?
