What technical feedback would you like if any? probably should have been at f6.3 or f8 to get back and tail plumage in focus. Might be a little tight on the crop but this was threading a needle with a lot of less desirable stuff at the frame edges.
What artistic feedback would you like if any?
Pertinent technical details or techniques: iso 1000, 560mm, f4.5, 800th, A7R4, tripod, fill flash at 1.7, 50% full frame

Hi David
On the framing, I would only add a little head room. As for the tail plumage being out of focus, I like that it bring the viewer eye up to the Robins eye. The detail is outstanding. Of the new mirror-less camera, why did you pick Sony.

Beautiful detail where it needs to be. The OOF tail works for me as it is obscured in soft foliage. I might consider burning down some of the foliage – it is pretty but that makes it compete a bit.
