Nice environmental shot Henk! We used to call these English Sparrows. Now they are called House Sparrows.

I think you could photoshop some snow in there as well and make a Christmas card.

This looks amazing with the white fade and everything. I think you should try to sell this image.... BUT FIRST, put your watermark on it before someone steals it.

Gorgeous shot. I really like the overall lighting. That odd circular highlight on the strawberry is slightly distracting.

What a beautiful image! I love the combination of the song and the portrait. The sparrows around here are slightly different from the ones you have pictured. I will see if I can capture an image to show you.

That is a beautiful combination, Henk. My husband denigrates the little sparrows around our place - calls them flying mice. But I just think that the shrubs are much more interesting for the little flock which flies in and squabbles about who sits where, before disappearing for a while only to return and play it all again. They do no harm and help keep the insects down, so in my opinion they are good value.
