The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
I go by this bush everyday on my walk and think it would make a nice setting if only a bird would land there. Patience paid off. For me, this is close to my ideal shot with a nice perch and background. Wish there had been a slight head turn, but you can’t have everything.
Specific Feedback
Any thoughts for improvement are appreciated.

Allen, a perfect perch and BG, and an almost-perfect bird!
The berries and leaves are excellent, and all in a good POF.
The bird didn’t fully cooperate, but this is still a very nice image.
Very good, Allen. I really like the perch and background and the bird appears to be looking at you out of the corner of its eye. Interesting that the hood is so pale that it’s hardly visible.
Nicely contrasting bird with the BG. Love the diagonal perch with all those berries. Bird seems a bit soft to me but this is still a very pleasing image.
Very nice!! It’s a small point but there appear to be some blown whites on the belly. That camera has a good dynamic range and you might be able to recover them with a tweak in the raw stage.
Not much more can be said about this near perfect shot. I really like the BG colors and shades . It shows the bird off. I’m with Dennis, I think he is waiting and watching you take the shot. Thanks
Allen, I really like the colors that are hinting of Fall in this image. The ripe berries, the turning leaves, and that nice rich, smooth BG. This is a really pleasing, almost painterly image. Nicely done.
