Willie, this is a wonderful shot of this little bird. Your notes seems to make it come alive.

I do enjoy your birds willie. You should do a calendar, or a book, and sell them.

Excellent work Willie.

What amazing detail you have managed to capture in this close up shot of a fox sparrow. The colouring of his feathers is really attractive and brought to us in detail due to excellent focus. The angle it is taken at works really well. Good lighting.

Nice picture! This bird has lovely markings and you have captured it in a great pose. The eye is pin sharp and has good catch lights. I don't actually have any more stars to award but I was going to say I'd be tempted to add another half, had it not been for the rather busy background - but that is I guess its natural habitat.

Well separated from background considering the colouration. Nicely exposed with good depth. I like the crop with space on the right

Good composition. Depth of field is kind of shallow, his eye is sharp, but his beak is blurred. If you have many like this, it might pay to get Focus magic demo to see if it helps.

Details from Highlight to mid-tones and dark areas to blacks, give it a full tonal range.

These Points were considered in the rating of this piece:
Initial impact
Creativity
Color harmony
Center of interest
Technique
Technical excellence
Story telling

A challenge for an artist can be to make their work look as good online as the original subject or better, you have done very well.

Reviewers review what we see, as my time is limited, have only time to review, subjects or images I like and then try to give helpful suggestions.

Sharpening is important.
Any changes in a digital, even re-sizing causes a loss of sharpening. So final sharpening after all changes are made, can make them look the way we want...

You have a well sharpened image that gives it a bit more punch.

Great looking shot. Fine example of bird photography. Your timing appears to be perfect and you have captured the alert look on bird's face very well.
Well done!
