Wow! To me this is perfect! The composition with this beautiful little bird sitting at the “crossroads” is mesmerizing. The colours are so rich and highlight its crown. Well done!
Sharp where it counts, great head angle, the reeds are busy but a nice arrangement and comp.
Great image Allen! I love colors, detail and the comp. The background works very well. No nits from me. Well done!
This is fantastic, Allen. The reeds nicely frame the sparrow’s head. Perfect. Well done.
I really like the reeds and you got a beautifully sharp image of the sparrow, Allen. To me, there are a couple of reeds that don’t seem to fit the flow of the image. I did a minor crop and erased the upper right diagonal reed-see what you think.
I think trying to remove the vertical reed is a good idea, but I like the angled reed as it goes with the flow of the reeds on the left and frames the sparrow to some extent.
Yeah, I also like what Dennis did to the crop and cloning. Excellent image and pose.
