Beautiful scene, Allen, with a great pose from the lady. The detail looks excellent without being overdone. I’m surprised you could get that close to this bird-the ones around here are quite skittish-for good reason given our attitude toward them.

Thanks, Dennis. This was taken in Shakespeare’s Garden in Central Park, where the dominant bird is the house sparrow and I think they’re pretty comfortable around people.

Lovely image Allen. Love all the blooms surrounding the bird - very pleasing for sure. Details and exposure look good too. Well done.
