[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Spanish]
Carduelis Carduelis, in Canary islands known as "pinto",
it is a bird very protected by law...
at the moment there are areas in Tenerife where they can be seen, in the almond trees and in a bush called tarajal, (tamarix canariense)
I have planted in my several garden Tamarix and thistles, to attract these beautiful birds.

Hi Vicma.
What a charming picture you have shared. Captured scene and pose of the beautiful bird are amazing. I like "art" (a little bit soft) sharpness, delicate a lights and colours, superb POV and excellent vertical composition,. Bravo. Excellent work.

bonjour vicma
il est splendide,ce que j'aprecie c'est que vous l'avez eu sur un chardon en graine et non pas sur un mangeoire,cela donne un coté tres nature a l'image de tres bonne qualité.
bravo.

Hello Vicma,
This is a wonderful capture of pajarro Pinto in a beautiful pose on the Thistle. Fine details and wonderful colours. Great background too and a very fine composition. We had two in the garden yesterday.
TFS and regards, Ulla

Hola Vicma, elegant bird with wonderful warm colors, splendid details and great sharpness, lovely blurry BG, very well done, ciao Silvio

buenooo, la definiría con dos palabras: delicadeza y sensibilidad !!!
El cuerpo te quedó muy bonito por la pose del pájaro y lo bien enfocado que está. Muy oportuno ese cardo seco con las espinas dispuestas de esa manera. Buen fondo, luz y presentación. Encantadora fotografía.
Mi foto , tienes razón, al límite. Al atardecer, sin flash y sin trípode. A mas de 15 m. de las aves y desde el coche con el sigma 70-300 , aunque no estoy descontento del resultado :-)
Abrazo.

VICMA,
The male of this species has a lovely song. I had one when I lived in the Algarve in Southern Portugal. I think this one is a female.
Great photography work, my friend.
Best wishes from Mario in COLD COLD Canada.

Hello Vicma
This is stunning...you have captured an almost innocent softness to the lovely goldfinch on the spiny thistle...I like your idea of planning for next years photography by planting the tamarix and thistles.
tfs and best regards
Paul

Dear Victor,
an outstandingly well composed image with very gently and smooth colours, and just perfect details. Softness and prickly thorns go so very well together in this little masterpiece of excellence.
Please allow me to say that I personally would prefer to see that excellent artistic image without an artificial 3D-border that is absorbing some of the energy and attention that could be focussed on that precious image alone.
Thank you! My best regards,
Peter

Jo...... anda yo quiero uno como estos,,, anda porfa.....(como dirián los pijos).
Pero yo quiero uno, te cambio uno de estos por uno de los míos.. valeeeee?
