LITTLE ROBIN

This cute little Robin was playing hide and seek with me.
So, I hid myself behind a trunk and suddenly it appeared..I just had the time to take one picture and away it was again.
May be it's the same as the other day, because I met him very close to the River, which gives the blue color to the background.

It's for you, Nicholas Glen(nglen), master of bird-shots, it's the Swiss version of your favourite bird.

You used the sun very much to your advantage. I am seeing more and more folks try this now..side and back lighting works well don't you think,. It give personality to the image...this is a great example of how well this works! And to Sir Nick, well chosen!

Hello Anne,
Looks like this Robin is expecting some food from you! He looks very cute on the mossy wall. Beautiful light and colours, sharp focus and a fine composition. Very well done! I nearly posted a Robin today - it may be my next one!
TFS and best wishes, Ulla

Hi Anne, a fine capture of this pretty robin with lovely pose with nice details and dof.
TFS and Have a nice new week!
Cheers,

Bayram

Hi Anne,
Gratulation - ich hatte diesen Winter noch kein Glück mit Rotkehlchen, sie sind soooo scheu, irgendwie merken sie immer, wenn ich mit der Kamera auf der Lauer liege.
Vor kurzem habe ich das Futterhäuschen nachgefüllt, da saß ein Rotkehlchen ganz nahe dabei und hat sich von mir gar nicht beeindrucken lassen - aber sobald die Kamera da ist, ist es weg ... sniff!
Also vielen Dank für Deinen schönen Schuß, liebe Grüße

Hello Anne,

You have made a very fine photo with the littel Robin. You have had a very nice lighting and made very good use of it. I like the way light is falling from behind the bird. The colors of the plumage blends nicely with the grey of the stone arround.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian

Truly beautiful picture of high technical level.

The stone and moss are great backdrop for the bird, compensating for the hidden tail.

TFS,

Ishi

Bonjour Anne !
Quelle jolie photo de ce rouge-gorge, il est mignon, et j'adore sa pose - il a l'air curieux, très attentif, prêt à prendre son envol. Jolis détails sur le plumage et sur la mousse, belle lumière, belle composition et couleurs très naturelles. Félicitations !
Valérie.

Hi Anne,

Excellent shot of this little Robin. I like the light showering on the body exposing fine details of the plumage. Beautiful perch and very well captured.

Regards,
Jusni

Robin is a very beautiful photo. Sharpness, details and colors are very beautiful. Congratulations.

Hallo Anne
It looks so sweet and charming. The colours are great, as well as the richness of details and the sharpness. It's a very pleasant photo to look at. You caught this one at a special moment resulting in this lovely pose. Thanks for sharing this well deserved dedication to Nicholas.
Kind regards

Hi Anne,
very lovely little robin. Cute and very pretty indeed, especially with the streak of light coming from behind.
Pleasant with lovely soft blurry background. The sharpness is well rendered even the mosses on the brick look pleasant too.
Nicey composed.

regards,
Foozi

Bonsoir Anne,
The Robins in your country seem to be as shy as the ones in mine, but you made a fine sharp capture in difficult lighting that you used well to give the robin a fine outline against the OOF watery BG.
A fine composition too.
Merci et bonne soirée,
Amitiés,
Ivan

Ciao Anne,
splendida immagine di pettirosso in una delle sue classiche pose, eccellente POV con la luce radente e laterale-dietro che esalta una parte del piumaggio, le zampe e i ciuffi di muschio sul muretto, mi piace molto il taglio compositivo e l'inquadratura con la coda coperta dal tronco che conferisce il giusto "pathos" all'incontro con questi graziosi piccoli uccelli.
Merci et félicitations.
Buona giornata.
Amicalement
Maurizio

The Robin how paint. Very pretty frame. I suppose that little bird looks about for food, or came flying in visits. Pretty colours and sharpness.
