Hi Mikael,

A beautiful shot of this lovely Pipit - a bird I have seen only in pictures. Excellent details of the face and blowing plummage. The colors are superb with a background that blends perfectly with the bird.

Well done, Mikael.
A really close encounter and a very good image.
I like the monochromatic colours and the natural light.
Great point of view and depth of field as well.

Hi Mikael.
Once more amazing of quality and very nice by subject picture. I like wonderful cropping of the image, lovely colour palette and superb details and sharpness of the bird image and twig. Reproduction of all tiny details of the bird is really fantastic. Bravo. Excellent job.

hi Mikael,
exceptionnelle clareté dans cette image, on dirait presque un cliché de studio. Parfaite netteté, brillant dans l'oeil bien saisi, dommage que la seconde patte soit masquée par la branche.

Hi Mikeal,

Beautiful shot of the cute little Pippit.
Nicely composed with a good POV and a fine pose.
Very nice details and nice light in the eyes
Lovely warm colour tones too.

Hi Mikael,

Lovely image again with wonderful details and color tones.
Wonderful catchlight in the eye of the Pipit, and perfect sharpness.
Very beautiful soft BG colors wich are in great similarity with the color tones of the feathers.
Pity there is an out of focus soft spot on the lower right hand corner, but it does'nt effect the beauty of the image to much.
Very well done. TFS!!!

Best regards, Harry

Hi Mikael,
great shot. I love the brown colors all over the image.
Sharpness is great. As is the composition.
The blurred thing in the foreground disturbes a bit, but great image anyway :)

Hi Mikael

A lovely shot of this dainty little bird with lots of sharp detail and excellent poise.

It's amazing how the colours of the bird and the splendid BG actually blend together. The late afternoon (early evening) sun provided a beautiful soft light for the shot and really caused some lovely warm tones. The composition is just great and I like the branch next to the bird that sort of frames the subject although it still allows the bird to look over it thus giving the shot a feeling of sufficient space.

Good work and TFS.
Regards
Loot

PS. Thanks for all the great support so far and sorry if I disappointed you somewhere along the way.
