Hi Jeanpaul

Lovely shot, this must be a lucky branch as I think it the same one the lovely Blue Jay was perching on in your previous post, the composition is lovely, with a great POV and pose, lovely colours and nice sharp details.

Merry Christmas

A new species for me Jeanpaul.
Good sharpness and composition with the OOF pine needles creating a pleasant frame around the bird.
Maybe just a lttle too central would be the nit I have.
Well done.

The background tones really make a great match for this bird JP. I like how the blurred branches make a nice frame around the bird.

Hi Jeanpaul

Wow! This one, just like you last one, have been two really EXCELLENT posts! Did you change anything in your equipment or your photographing technique, because the boost in quality is most significant!
I would really want to congratualte you, my friend, for theese amazing pictures.
The sharpness and saturation here on this beautiful grosbeak are fantastic, the POV excellent and it also gave you a great angle for the bright and beautiful blurry BG in the back.
The framing is very nice, too, as is the overall composition.
GREAT work!

Bravo, TFS and Happy Holidays, my friend!

This is a great shot. Colors are very good and the focus on the bird is sharp. Compositionwise I wouldn't have placed the bird in the dead centre, but rather a little bit more to the right to give him breatingspace. The blurred background is great and really makes the bird stand out. Well done & TFS!

Regards,
Pieter

Hello Jeanpaul
What an excellent shot! Magnificent sharpness, color, background, composition... Warm color in a cold season. Precious perch and framing leaves. Gorgeous!
I should like to know how do you do to take such wonderful pictures of birds. I think that so difficult!
Thank you very much for sharing

La suavidad de los rasgos y texturas y la armonía de colores del ave y su entorno, convierte esta imagen casi en una postal dibujada a mano.
Dicha composición realzada por una cálida iluminación y el apropiado encuadre y punto de vista conforman sin dudas a esta entrega, en una gran presentación.
Mis mejores deseos para el año que se inicia y espero repleta de hermosas capturas como esta!.
Ricardo

The softness of the features and textures and the harmony of colors of the bird and their environment, it converts this image almost in a postcard drawn by hand.
This composition enhanced by a warm illumination and the appropriate framing and point of view conforms without doubts to this post, in a great presentation.
My best wishes for the year that begins and I hope replete of beautiful captures as this!.
