Hi Phil, cracking little guy, very natural setting and the detail is spot on. Like the detail in the eye. Could crop a little off the top?

My only concern is that there seems to be a cast running through the image.

Lovely image of this elusive bird. Agree with Steve on the color cast but that's easily solved.

greetings,

Like the repost. The whole image has a very intimate feel to it. Suits the subject well

How on earth did you nail a grasshopper warbler?! Its difficult locating them never mind then getting close enough to get a photo! Simply stunning!

I prefer the repost Phil. Colour looks more natural and the composition is stronger I feel.

Phil the RP is sweat, colour looks much better & faithful.

Might just crop out the white highlights breaking into the image on the LHS.

Super shot Phil, repost for me, and I agree with Steve about the white bits on the very left edge
