goldfinch on willow herb
At last these guys seem to have got their full colours back and those that can't get on my feeders have to make do with some willow herb that I left growing in the corner.

LARGER VERSION

5D2, Sig 500, iso 800, f6.3, 1/80
C&C welcome

Lovely background colours (not too smoooooth) and I can appreciate the naturalness of the environment but it doesn't quite work overall for me Eric. The goldfinch is a bit too central and as a result I find the image as a whole a bit off balance.

Very good colour and natural looking sharpness.You can feel the crunch in that dead foliage. :smile:
