Good capture of this attractive bird, not one we have here in the UK. Love the 3/4 profile, the angle of the branch, texture and colours of the feathers - just a slight pity you didn't catch the whole tail and feet.

Beautiful colors. Wonderful composition. The subject is great. The details are great. The DOF is wonderful. This is a great eye catcher and it pulls the viewer into the photograph. Great job.

Very good texture in the feathers. Nice quiet bg. It would be extra nice to have a spark of light in his eyes. Very clear focus and excellent colors. Nice image. TY dave

what a great shot, the focus is stupendous and the fact that he is eating is very cool. His colors are beautiful. Good work.

Comment from The Condition Black


Great photograph. I love the detail and focus. A really rich piece!

Your balance of tones works well here, and there is a great contrast to the piece; the result of of the division between the birds black and white feathers. Still, you get credit for the photograph so thumbs up to you (and a little pat on the back for our friend here, he posed well).

The colors here really work, especially the little splash of red against the green background. Opposite colors really add depth to a picture, so this was a lucky break.

I see that you adjusted the contrast, I like the minimalist approach but I think that the whites of the birds feathers come off a little grayed. Maybe add a little more? Or touch up the brightness just a hair? Not that big of a deal and certainly doesn't warrant a deduction of your rating, but something that caught my eye.

You took a great shot here, good luck in the spring contest and keep that camera handy. I have a feeling you have quite the collection of photographs ahead of you.

    Thank you so very much! I am shooting every day. Anywhere from one to two hundred! It is rare for me not to be shooting something!

Very nice shot. The bird is well focused and the details seem sharp. Nice capture with it breaking open a seed to eat. The colors are nice. Good luck in the contest.

You've done it again. A very well taken photo. Great DOF and beautiful colours. This really is an attractive little bird. You are so lucky to have this variety. Pin sharp and well framed - it deserves the ratings it's received!
