The Crested Tit, now there's a bird I would love to photograph. I'm liking the diagonal perch Keith but not the composition, considering the bird is almost looking straight at you, maybe a tighter portriat crop might work better. Just a thought and others may disagree.

Hi Keith

a fine shot in all respects :toast:

Not too sure about the square crop as it looks a bit too central but thats personal preference :smile:

A fantasric eye here, although I agree with Andy about the comp. More of the bird in profile would have been preferable.

Nits covered above, I too would prefer it not as a square but apart from that the background is good and the detail is nice. I like the branch and pastel'ly type look.

I do like the position of the bird here, as it conveys its lively "personality". I love the background too. I also vote for a landscape crop.
