This is the same mossy perch as the last post I made, but it had gotten a bit disheveled in the last couple of days and I had moved it, so there was this area of moss hanging down from it against the exclusion cage for a feeder that I’d attached it to. This Chickadee landed on it, stuffed a sunflower seed in the moss and held this pose for three frames. It’s one of those events that makes sitting in a blind for hours very worthwhile.
What technical feedback would you like if any?
Anything. I used the healing brush to cover up three small areas where the exclusion cage that supports the perch showed through gaps in the moss. I also used the healing brush to remove the flash catchlight from the eye.
What artistic feedback would you like if any?
Does the composition work? This is cropped from the left and bottom to put the eye in the upper left cross of the golden rectangle grid.
Pertinent technical details or techniques:
