This is just too perfect Lori....lol...did you take a fake yellow bird and stand him on that Sunflower??

Perfectly composed. Your focus on both the bird and the flower is marvelous....crisp and sharp. Exposure just right. There's a lovely little spark in his eye and color?? Really eye-catching.

This couldn't be better if you'd planned it. LOVE it and would not change a single thing.

Thanks so much Deborah for the awsedsome review and very generous 6 star rating! I was so thrilled when I looked up and saw him there on the sunflower! I took this through my sliding glass doors=) My son had planted the sunflower and it was growing on the table! I was so afraid he would fly before I could grab my camera and get off the shot=) Thanks so much again my freind! Lori

Wow! This s a virtual 6 until Sunday noon!
I like the vibrancy, clarity, color & charm rolled into one!
An interesting initial impact.
Bright lighting. Pin sharp focusing. Tall format framing.
Nice perspective & narrow DOF. Thanks for sharing...

A really fine shot. The simplicity of the composition is elegant and the background is excellent. I like the way the goldfinch picks up the colors of the flower. Great detail in the bird.

Comment from Joelgraphuchin
This in beautiful. The sun flower is ready to bloom. The bird enjoys it. Focus on them (flower and bird ) is fantastic. Their yellow color catches eye.

Well done and thanks for sharing.
