Nice one, Wade. I like the positioning of the bird, the upper branch helps to keep my eye focused on him. You could clone out the out of focus branch in the lower right and not lose anything in terms of overall image. Really a nice shot.

I agree, the lower branch takes my eye away from the bird. Nice capture. :smile:

Beautiful capture. I agree that the branch in the LRC is a little distracting.

Perfect detail and composition within the frame..

Nice capture of a song sparrow, Wade. I agree with cloning out the lower rt branch and if you do the upper left also, it would make for an even more pleasing image. Nice detail on the sparrow. :toast: :toast: :toast:
