I figured this must be one of yours, and I'd say you framed it beautifully even without a crop. Love the interaction between them in this capture, too--almost like one is whispering "hey, there's someone pointing a camera at you" to the other. :-D
It's so crazy to imagine seeing birds this large and colorful just hanging out in one's own backyard. We get painted buntings--close in color, but they're so tiny. I'm still on the hunt for a good shot of one. |
