Hi Claudine, This is a delightful photo of a smug looking bird. The details you have been able to show in this presentation is extreme, especially the feet. I like the colours and his fluffed up look. TFS. Murray.

Hi Claudine.
Now I see flash work very well. And result is very impressive. First of all it is great colour reproduction. Second, excellent details. At macro shooting I have noticed that flash light gives more sharpness and details. Composition f the picture is perfect as always. And POV is so attractive. Even light BG does not look as OE. My compliments and best regards. Well done.

Hi Claudine,

A wonderful picture of this cold, cold Sparrow. Everything about him is so natural looking. The plummage, face, and wings are all in excellent detail. Lovely colors and great eye contact. I have never seen one here.

This looks to be a very nicely executed photo of this colorful, fluffy bird, Claudine. There is wonderful sharpness on the whole bird. I like the curvy branch with his sharp toes. The flash served you sell.

Bonsoir Claudine,

Très belle photo d'un oiseau pas facile à prendre (au moins, poir moi)! Les détails et la composition sont impeccables, pour les couleurs, il me semble que la saturation soit un peu trop forte, mais c'est une question de goût. Aussi, le petit brin qui coupe l'angle supérieur gauche pourrait être enlevé dans un logiciel de traitement d'image. Mais ce ne sont que des suggestions, la photo est magnifique! Merci,

Eugène

Hello Claudine,
Good point of view, and they are so cute in the fluffy winter look!
Super details in plumage, good composition with the strong diagonal...
The bird stands out well on the somewhat busy background!

Bonjour Claudine,

Le Bruant hudsonien sur la branche capte toute notre attention. Il ne semble pas être dérangé par la présence du photographe. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails et les couleurs de l'oiseau. La photo est claire et précise. bonne journée.

Bonjour Claudine, heureuse de voir un autre des tes superbes petits bijoux. Qu'il est beau cet oiseau et quelle belle lumière encore une fois. J'aime beaucoup la composition et la répétition des couleurs du plumage avec les branches de l'arbre. Ce petit bruant tout gonflé est charmant et un plaisir à regarder. Merci!

Bonjour Claudine,
ahhhh il n'y a pas à dire, la netteté et les couleurs sont au rendez-vous, l' oiseau est de toute beauté et adopte une très jolie pose, je trouvais le background un peu surexposé mais j'ai lu quelques commentaires et comme personne n'en parle je me dis que c'est mon foutu écran qui est mal calibré,
en tous les cas je te félicite de cette magnifique composition,
bravo et à bientôt

Bonjour Claudine,

Il est tout en plumes ce bruant, une bonne façon de se réchauffer. C'est vrai qu'avec un backlight, il est très difficile de photographier, mais avec l'utilisation de ton flash tu réussis ici à nous présenter ce bruant avec une bonne netteté, d'excellents détails dans le plumage et cette belle lumière dans l'oeil. Bien fait!

Bonjour Claudine, quelle belle image du Bruant, pose parfaite, éclairage superbe, détails très nets et décor sublime! Une seule petite chose, sur mon moniteur les couleurs semblent un peu 'poussées' mais je me trompe peut-être. En tous cas, bravo !

Hi Claudine

Another beautiful picture of the tree sparrow. I really like the little glint in the eyes, and the fluffed up, fine feathers on the chest and belly. Very natural colors.

TFS and Best

Hi Claudine

He looks adorable all puffed up from the cold. Interesting note about the lighting, that looks like a great tool. I am getting an external flash unit for my birthday next month...something new to learn! Obviously you know what you are doing as the lighting here is excellent.

Your photography is getting better and better each time I look Claudine.This is an impressive POV, with nice full colours. The bird also made a nice pose for you. I agree that the flash extender makes a difference.
Hope you have a nice weekend.

I see that I am the latest in a long long line of admirers to comment on this absolutely brilliant photo of this beautiful little bird.
It is just a cracking good shot and you should be very proud to have taken it.
Really enjoyed looking at it and feel inspired to improve my own attempts at photography.

Hello Claudine,
I wanted to start with "Hey, you see without flash and so much better..." I'm wrong:-)
A bit of noise in the tail but apart from that...up to 96 in smileys, I see:-)
Good work from Mont Saint-Hilaire
