Hi Nick,

The weather may have been dull but a Robin is never dull. Nothing is more cheerful than their beautiful flowers. I love that little face with the big eye. Face, plummage and feathers are excellent. Beautiful pose on the angled branch. The matching orange of the tree is a marvelous touch. Superb background and composition.

Hi Nick

Nice to see you are still shooting even in such a weather :)
This is actually a splendid shot! That impressive lens made sure you'd have excellent light conditions and superb sharpness all across the robin here. When did you buy it?
Anyway, gorgeous colors and excellent DOF, too.

Bravo and TFS

I saw your note to Maury....and was mentioning to him how oft4en you do this particular Robin....Although many are surprised at the size of ours...I have seen them since a child...and so being a fan more of the smaller birds, my tendency is to much more appreciate the European model. Of course you know this is one of you foremost top drawer shots!

Hola Nicholas, la evisente saturación del color no impide que la toma sea igualmente bella. Buena luz y texturas de las ramas que son o se asemejan a las del cerezo.

Hi Nick,
a fine picture of the Robin, the colours are nice,
your are much more red than our and our are more affraid and
keep the distance. The sharpness are very high and all details are well seen. I like the pose and POV.
About the your dull weather, I thinks you have a quite good settings, I have not been out for at least 2 weeks because of the bad light.
Well done.

Hi Nick,
that's amazing, I'm jealous of this perfect shot ;-) And of the motive!
I also have a robin here around, but too shy to let me make a shot of him - what a pity!
So thanks for your wonderful one, bye

Hi Nick,
A great photo of this very pretty bird. I can't remember of wich BBC program I saw it, but it seems that due to the street lights some Robins are waking up too early.
I like the dark BG making the colors of the Robin even more present. The details in its feathers are awesome and so is the clean composition.
TFS,
Niek
