Hi Luis!

It looks so delicate! I love the position of its head, it seems to be sad or thinking at something. The twigs where it is standing on are as delicate as the bird. The whole picture is very pleasant, also because the colours suit very well.

Kind regards

Hi Luis,

Very nice shot of this Ruby-crowned Kinglet, especially with quite short lens you had. Very good pose and composition, pin sharp details and good DOF and BG. I find the red detail on his head quite interesting as the bird is otherwise grey.

Hi Cousin,

I love this little bird! I haven't seen one here in over a month - they must have been on their way down to Mexico. Wonderful shot - so glad you got the red patch on his head. Beautiful pose, nice natural colors, excellent details and a beautiful setting.

Excellent sharpness on this tiny bird. Wow, those legs are thin. Nice colors also. I think I may favor a closer crop removing most of the out of focus branches in the left foreground.

Hi Luis.
I know how difficult these birds are to capture. I just tried myself.
They move so fast, and are so small.
Nice focus and DOF.
