Goldfinch

They are looking more beautiful now they are getting their adult feathers

Canon 1DMK4, ISO 800, f9, 1/320

lovely colours and detail well taken

Excellent composition Karen, and sharp all over. Nice clean bg, though I can't decide about the bg colour, seems a bit bright, but that's my personal preference, great shot.

Heath

Nice composition Karen but a little big in the frame for me. Assuming it is cropped I wonder if the head might not look a little sharper at a smaller size? Could be my monitor or eyes as Heath finds it sharp all over.

thanks Heath the background is the lawn in my garden

This is nearly full frame Maggie just a tad off for comp it looks sharp to me though, i have a bigger version that looks even sharper

Sharp enough for me Karen and a good head angle.

The BKGR comes across a bit harsh on my screen, I would tone it down a touch personally.

Cheers

Lovlely image ticks all the right boxes, nice one

Nice detail across the whole bird, Think you have the exposure and colour just right.Good pose too.

Looks just fine to me Karen
Well captured.

Karen, lovely image but I would tend to err on the side of desaturating the bgjust a little. Andrew

Looks like you've captured some nice detail. The grass is going to be green with all this rain were having!

Ian

thanks everyone and Ian the green is even greener than on the image its the true colour

Nice one.

I would almost say the BG is too bright but it is a wonderful colour. Nice shot.

Like it Karen, nice one.
