What a great portrait of this little sparrow. The details and lighting are superb. I think I even see your reflection in his eye!

I think I can see you in its eye. What a great portrait, David. Pretty much what a portrait should look like.

Incredible detail, David. A lovely portrait of a rather shy species.

Brilliant showcase of HQ image making :slight_smile: ! Cheers, Hans
ps I also see you in the reflection…

But did you also notice the cloudy skies?

You are so right, David, we can see the clouds in his eye! What a great shot. Such details.
