Hola Vicma,
Muy buena y clara captura!
Me gusta mucho la iluminación y pose obtenidas en el ave, mientras disfruta del agua en la fuente.
Hermosos los colores y patrones en las plumas, que se resaltan del entorno gracias a la muy acertada abertura utilizada.
Enhorabuena y gracias por mostrarnos la foto.
Un gran saludo,
JM

Hola Vicma,

This is a very pleasant image Vicma. I love the toning colors throughout the shot. The markings on this little bird are so attractive and the sharpness of the detail makes them even moreso. Nice work.

Hi Vicma!
As I see also in this picture your style is visible - PERFECTION! All elements of this photo are great - starting from DOF, POV, sharpness and colours and ending with BG and frame.
It is also nice to read about colonization of Canary Islans by this sparrow :)
Best regards,
Radomir

Hola Victor, de esta toma destaco el buen encuadre de los elementos: ave-roca y fuente. El conjunto de colores y la tenue luz junto con el desenfoque de fondo crean un ambiente bonito.
Correcta profundidad.

Amazing picture of this cute sparrow. This summer I have taken many shot of sparrows at close distance. And so I understand how well you have done this shot. The scenery is great . I like it a lot. The image of the bird is wonderful too. Colours, details and sharpness are fantastic. FG and BG are fine too. Superb job. Bravo and TFS.

Hi Vicma

A rather simple subject but one presented so beautifully here by you.
I really like the shallow DOF that you used here and the way it concentrates all the attention of the viewer on the head of teh sparrow.
The details are very clear and sharp and the perspective and POV are also very nice.
A charming composirion.

Bravo and TFS
Horia

Hi Vicma,

Lovely shot with bags of interest and charm. There is so much detail in the plumage which is pretty amazing given you were shooting at 400mm on f5.6 - there is only the slightest hint at a loss of detail as a result of a pretty narrow dof. Great camera work.

Kind regards,

Mike

Hello Vicma

A beautiful image of this cute little Moruno Sparrow.
The lighting is well utilized producing excellent colours.
The POV is very good and the image is well composed in the frame.
The focus is sharp and the details are excellent.The plumage is well defined with rich colours.
Excellent depth of field.

Hi Victor,
very lively, pleasantly colourful, clear image. That sparrow seems to be very healthy and enjoying his stay, same as the Spaniards who colonized the Canaries a few centuries before him. Beautiful soft light, wonderful warm hues.
Thank you! My best regards,
Peter

Hello Victor,
A lovely sparrow in a beautiful dress!
Plumage is very well reproduced both in details and colours, and it is nice to see he is sitting in water...
A well composed presentation!

Hi Vicma,

Hola vicma.

Que chulito el pajarillo refrescandose en la fuente y que bien se aprecia.

Saludos.
jose Luis.

bonjour vicma
ce petit moineau est bien detaillé et avec les couleurs naturelles,il aurait été superbe s'il avait été en train de se secouer dans l'eau.

VICMA,
This SPARROW has become a pest in Terceira, Azores. There used to be THOUSANDS & THOUSANDS of BEAUTIFUL canaries there; but, MAN, in all his wisdom, has destroyed almost everything & everywhere.
Thanks for sharing this GREAT image.
Mario from COLD Canada.

superbe image de ce moineau, quoi que commun cela donne une image douce dans les teintes et les couleurs. La netteté est bien gérée sauf au bout de la queue.
