Hello Again!

Yes, this is the same Junco from yesterday. (I don't get out much.) As today was my day off, however, I was able to spend a good deal more time enjoying these guys. This one and another hung out with me while I was doing a bit of yard work, chirping happily the entire time. Love that!

[Nathan Marshall]

my favourite thing about this is the amazing clarity of the bird contrasted by the blur of the wing. oh and the black and white :)

[Cat Whiskers - Nan]

This is beautiful! Love it in B&W. Yard work, what is that? Oh, that is what I used to do before I got my camera! LOL

[stephanie dp]

this is amazing! I can't stop looking at it. so many interesting elements here: the one spread, translucent wing; the abstract-y shapes in the background; how he's grasping that pole. totally ridonkulous!!

[Nancy Meller]

I love this. The background is beautiful and I love the diagonal of the bird wing. Great choice in the black and white.

[Angie Vega ☮♥ シ]

this is awesome...the processing is amazing

[aikimomm (phoebe)]

What a terrific posture to catch him in, makes for such a nice composition. And those great shapes in the background -- are they tree leaves? shadows? some fancy processing? Whatever, it's another favorite.

[aikiuser (jenn)]

@aikimomm :-) Nope, no real fancy processing, those shapes are simply leaves, shadows, etc. made blurry from a shallow dof.

[cindy elliott]

great shot!. the shapes in the background, kinda abstract but very bird and "birdwing" like. all cool indeed!

[Muse]

Cool focus, movement on the wing and background!

[Rebecca Doyle]

The focus on the bird's body and then the blur on the wings is just perfection.

[Ellen E]

unbelievable shot - just gorgeous!!
