I love the perch and the head turn, David. To my eye, the 5% sharpening is still a touch excessive.

Hello, David. Lovely bird, perch, moss and BG are just fine. Seems like the bird/perch was a bit high, I have the feeling that I look a bit from below - eye level would have been perfect. As to the sharpening, I agree it could be a bit les. That said it’s not a dealbreaker for me. Cheers, Hans

Hi David, nice view of the chickadee and I like the perch arcing through the frame. Pleasing background. Agree that the bird and perch is over sharpened.
