Timo Hartikainen 556 Posted May 7, 2018 Very good! It's sharp; you can almost count every small feather, the eye is sharp, the worm is a nice bonus. If this was mine, I would try to crop it from the right side to see if it would make the composition better. These birds are quite hard to photograph, they move so quickly and are also so small, that you need some kind of telephoto lens. I have tried to photograph these little birds with manual focus gear and it's not an easy task, I guess autofocus lenses would help much with these small birds. Link to comment

Efren 1 Posted May 22, 2018 Good approach and texture of image. Nice and opportune detail. It would win a bit, I believe, if the little bird was in the right third of the photo. Regards. Link to comment
vincentoiseau 83 Posted May 22, 2018 Hi Efren, thanks a lot for your nice comment. I understand your suggestion of a different crop. Normally I tend to place a bird more to the right or left of a picture (as you can see in my kingfisher shot), but the twigs that the bird is perched on form a V-like shape that is directed at the top right corner, while the bird is leaning in the opposite direction. I liked that a lot and it made me choose this composition. Thanks again. Regards, Vincent Link to comment
Giangiorgio Crisponi 503 Posted June 4, 2018 A great capture for both, ciao Giangiorgio Link to comment
vincentoiseau 83 Posted June 4, 2018 Hi Giangiorgio, thank you for your comment on this image. I am glad I captured this; it was a matter of patience. My lack of movement made the bird curious and it came towards me after a few minutes. In a woody environment you need to have the bird sit on a well-lit spot. Kind regards, Vincent Link to comment

brucemorrison 0 Posted December 14, 2018 Beautiful capture, I don't have this kind of patience ! Link to comment
vincentoiseau 83 Posted December 15, 2018 Hi Bruce, thanks for your very nice comments on this photo! The reward for this patience is great, with the bird coming very close to you, which is a extraordinary experience. Kind regards, Vincent Link to comment
pablowarko 1 Posted November 4, 2019 What a beautiful and elegant looking bird, Vincent. Excellent focus on the eye, beak and snack. Gorgeous colors, light and background. The composition highlights the main attraction with aplomb. The birds pose is pure charm. Your skills and patience have created a striking image. Best regards, Paul. Link to comment
vincentoiseau 83 Posted November 4, 2019 Hi Paul, thanks for your very friendly comments! This image required some editing before I could publish it, but it was worth the while. I'm happy with the result myself too; the blue tit is one of my favorite birds, but hard to photograph. Kind regards, Vincent Link to comment

vincentoiseau 83 Posted April 29, 2020 Hi Chris, thank you for your friendly comment! It was a matter of patience mostly, the insect in the tit's beak was my bonus. Kind regards, Vincent Link to comment
