The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
Cistacolas are wee tiny birds with the biggest personalities. This one is sitting atop a coral tree chirping his little head off. I think he was trying to convey something important to me.
Specific Feedback
Too much foliage, not enough bird?
White sky background?
Some leaves were pruned off.
All comments and suggestions are very welcome!

Not much you can do about the ratio of bird to foliage so go with it – as you did! Lovely composition on the foliage and the bird is a wonderful discovery! S(he) does convey an attitude. And SO COOL that the foliage near the golden head becomes more golden!! White sky gives it the look of a page in an Audubon book. Not shabby. And when I click twice for the enlargement I’m delighted by the detail you caught! I can’t see anything to suggest, except print, frame and put in a gallery!
Soft, appealing and immediately engaging. Great straddle pose and of course that joyous open beak. Or maybe it’s an angry bird, lol. The pushed whites and exposure work well with the colors, too. Good catch!
