Beautiful composition ! Good ligthning and colors ! The only thing I don't like is the background you've done with photoshop. It don't look natural and its not very well done. Also, YOU SHOULD say that in the description of your photo.

 

I would like to see the unmodified photo. Im sure this is a great photo.

 

You have so wonderful photos in your portfolio !

Excellent detail and focus, very well composed. Would be amazed if this is not the original background. Regards, Dieter

Excelente foto, hermosa composicion y nitidez. photo.net no me permite calificarla con 7/7, felicitaciones

Bill this is a very fine shot with perfect DOF and great contrast/detail. Nicely done. ~jerry

Beautiful Bill, beautiful.

Had to come back, I shouldn't answer for you Bill, but I've gotten some amazing bokeh on Goldfinches if I'm up really up close with my 400mm on the 30D--and they don't look "real" either!

The bokeh in this photo is for the most part natural, there were 2 OOF branches, one lower left and one upper right that were cloned to match the rest of the background, IMHO bokeh is a friend and the 100/400 lens that I use does a pretty good job when exposed between 5.6 & 7.1 this was taken at 6.3 in late afternoon light the background is from across a small ravine covered with winter creeper & leaves. The Female Cardinal that I will post today is 100% natural with a similar bokeh taken at 6.3. Thanks for your comments. B.

Beautiful colors, great shot.
