Parus caeruleus
Evening again all. Thought I'd bore you with another image from the weekend :biggrin: . This time a Blue Tit, bathed in some gorgeous soft morning light. It makes the BG look as though it's straight from a tin of Dulux. Though of course it isn't. Once again all C&C's most welcome. Thanks for looking.
Regards,
Paul Rosser. :wavey:

Lovely clean shot again Paul. Maybe a slice off the right - no big deal.

Nice one... only minor nit, and this is down to personal preference.... I am not too keen on the square crop..

Hi Paul,

Dulux is my favourite :biggrin:

Great image, perhaps a little off the right as already said. A portrait crop may have been a better but that's my personal choice.

Nice and sharp on the eye. :toast: :toast:

Latin?, and I thought it was Welsh :wink:

Some great detail in the bird Paul.
Well done.

Geoff.

Hello Paul.

Beautiful detail and some very nice light.

A perfect portrait Paul. Good head angle, catchlight and background. A little off the right would tighten the composition up nicely.

Cheers

Austin
