Who are you looking at?

This is a Nice Shot, in terms of controlling DoF.I understand the difficulty of capturing bird's shot. The hurdles of the stems on its face , and partly on neck side , distracts the visibility of the beautiful bird. rate 5/5

Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate a different opinion, and I see where you are coming from regarding the removal of certain reed stems.With my nature shots I try not to play around with them too much, but you have a valid point. Thanks again.
