I like the lighting, except on my the eyes. Silly birds, they don't realize that the eyes are a very important part of pictures.
I actually had a choice of 3 photos to today. This one, a squirrel's bum, or the shadow of my mini blinds casting on a wall. In the end, I love my birds.
I saw a pair of Cardinals, male and female, that seemed much smaller and duller in color than the others in the yard. They reminded me of immature, but it's not the right time in the season I don't think....
Manual mode shot. Editing consisted of upping the contrast a bit in photoshop. Oh, and this is a Chipping Sparrow.
You're too kind! Thanks so much!
