needed just a bit more DOF, but a great shot just the same

Terrific detail in the feathers adn the narrow DOF is excellent. The fine bokeh really helps to isolate this bird. I especially like the colors of the background. Very autumn-like colors. Exposure is outstanding and it doesn't appear that you had that much light to work with. 9

A lovely bird portrait with great focus, nice lighting - great catchlight in the eye and excellent composition - the position of the branch within the frame is superb. I like the blurred background a lot - the colours within it complement the bird but allow it to stand out from the background enough that we can appreciate it's form. 8

Perfect detail, light, color and presentation. The background you captured him with is the perfect complement to his own color.

Just nitpicking: DOF could have been a little greater to include the tail. Otherwise, textbook shot!

Suberb clarity and wonderful tones. The darker feel really brings in some drama. Well done! 8
