Well captured with amazing colors and details. The beautiful bokeh in the background greatly accents the goldfinch. The image is nicely in focus. Well done.

WOW! This is so stunning, Grace. The colors are magnificent. Your focus on this beautiful bird is sharp. The composition is just spectacular from the placement of the bird in the frame to the lovely plant he is sitting on, to the sidewards gaze. I could look at this all day. Beautiful!!!

A beautiful photograph of this little golden fellow. Your focus and clarity are so sharp as to show every little detail of his delicate feathers. Exposure is perfect and I like the green blurred out background, it shows him off nicely.

The dock plant seems a favorite among birds. You caught the Goldfinch in a pose which is always intriguing. The observing look over the shoulder. The photo is focused and has excellent shallow depth. The lighting is creative. The bird stands out from the darker background. The details in the focused areas are exquisitely refined. I see single fluffy feathers. The colors are realistic. The photo is composed and framed well.
