Super shot Eileen! Love the rain drops, great stop action on them. Super sharp focus, dof, exposure and framing. Nice work girlie!;)

This guy is not so happy with the rain LOL, my birds are enjoying a long bath each time - very nice capture of this little guy with such a handsome expressive body position, it says it all LOL - telling a story without words - handsome colors - perfect focus and clarity - even the small raindrops are perfectly clear and transparent - handsome green background color - very nice shot

    LOL we were all pretty soggy at this point. He was busy trying to figure out if he should venture into the pond for a snack. Thanks again Regina.

Great close-up. Love the subtle green backgroung. The juvenile really pops off of it. Great focus and detail of the bird. Beautifully marked and with all textures very visible.

Nice! Nice job capturing him in the rain.Perfect exposure with great color and detail in the feathers. Gorgeous background showing the rain falling from the sky. Super capture of his eye and detail in the bird. Great composition and point of view.

Nice to see you and Sandra decorating the top of the list of the well received. You both deserve to sit there in my opinion. I am so glad you kept the raindrops. I actually think they add a lot of interest to this shot. The background is nicely blurred and with a lovely green color, and the bird is standing out in the most excellent way.

The focus is spot on showing clear and well defined details in the feathers, and the eye is standing out really well. Good exposure as well for a rainy day like this.

The format you have cropped this down to works really well, and the bird is well placed within the frame. Really an excellent shot Eileen, and with perfect DOFF.

Very nice photo Eileen. I like the crop and I like the raindrops. It shows exactly what conditions these guys live in. The focus is good and the detail in his wings shows the markings and color very well. Nicely framed against the green blurred background.

Oh it is a wonderful close up full frame close up of this precious bird! And I love the raindrops in the image. Great clarity and good sharp focus on detail. Really get to see the bird up close. How neat to have a camera raincoat. A pleasure to view!

Comment from Skyangel02


This is crystal clear and beautiful. I gave you a six because raindrops are not easy things to capture in mid air. You did it perfectly with a wonderfully blurred background.
I will write those camera specs down and see if I can capture some raindrops at that speed too.
