Hi Richard.
Amazing shot in all respects. First of all I like impressive scene created by dry branch and elegant bird. Lights and shadows of the picture are also fine. But the most impressive for me are colourfulness and blurriness of the BG, superb sharpness and details of the bird image. Shot is looked like true 3D-image. Well done and TFS.

Hi Richard. The long wait was worth it . This a real beauty. Which you have taken with fine detail and sharp focusing. I like the pose with the birds head turned to one side as if to say look at me. Great detail and colours in the feathers. well done TFS.

Hi Rick,

How I wish I had seen this beautiful Robin when I was in Queensland! You were so luck (and skillful) to get this wonderful shot. Everything is picture perfect, pose, facial expression, colors, details, background and composition.

Hello Rick, I found the Eastern Yellow Robin to be one of the most difficult birds to photograph. They were always like a peripheral vision teaser. You've done an excellent job in getting a good close shot of this guy with perfect sharp detail. I like the pose you have him in with an excellent choice on your depth of field to isolate him from the background. Very nicely done.

Thanks, John

Hello Rick,
I'm sorry I missed this beauty earlier!
This is the best photo of a Yellow Robin that I have seen.
The lighting, pose, sharpness, BG andd POV, everything is first class. I took a shot of this species up in the north, but as mine was nothing like as good as this, this one has to be a favourite.
Thanks and cheers,
Ivan

What makes it all unique is that you remembered well and noticed the Jungian Synchonicity! VERY nice image...It looks like my old Nikon images....but a Canon is versatile..something like choosing the right club you old duffer:-)

Richard, this shot is class apart and establishes your credentials as one of the top-notch ace nature photographers on TN.
Apart from being technically at its best, there is something about this picture that makes it look different; after some thought, I attribute it to your uncanny perception of the dynamic of light which enabled you to set up your gear in such a way that it turned out to be a masterpiece.
I must congratulate you for this creation I consider one of the finest we have ever seen on this site.
Best regards,
Ram

Hello Rick,

What is appealing here is the clean non-intrusive composition, that leaves all attention to the beautiful bird!
Excellent reproduction of the plumage, the details are amazing and the colours are back to noting...
Good 3D feeling!
