congratulations on your patience ... and it certainly paid off ..
this is very similar to another shot i've seen in a challenge, altho i see so many i'm not sure of the details .. the other one i think was a tighter crop .. but they probably the same sort of bird ..
love the bright red contrasting with the cold snow and the branches .. like a touch of warmth .

hi ivan!!
wot a great start to this 30 day challenge and lets hope you can stick this one out!! .. :) ...
i love this shot ...... its bloody excellent ... it has a great feel to it and i love the contrast between the light and the dark & the black, red and white colours ...... i especially love the two areas where the light must be underneath, one to the left of the sign that has a red hue, and one to the right that has a purplish hue ...... did i say excellent?..

yes i see wot you mean about synchronistic decisions .. lets hope that in the next few challenges we can actually think like the voters ... i get it wrong most of the time ...
i wasnt even going to enter the photo that i got my personal best in, but i'd put it in my portfolio and judy jutilda left comment saying it'd go well in patterns .. i took it out straight away and submitted it .. all in the space of about half an hour!! ...
i think that a lot of photos i take, and dont even consider putting in challenges, would get blue ribbons .. lol lol lol ...... :)
my shallow dof and free study are both sitting around 5.6000 ish .. and i thought they'd go real well ... i got that wrong ..
however ... i've put one in the bad challenge and i'm gonna get blue for sure!!!!!!! lol lol lol .. :)
