Blue Jay Watching the First Snow

Diana... What a handsome guy and you've caught him in excellent light, with marvelous detail... Mike

Mike: thanks for your nice comment. I was testing my new "glass" with this pic, and the bird was more than cooperative (probably because of the cold) :)

Kathy: thanks for taking the time to process my image with the new crop. I really like yours as well, the only reason I left it dead-centered is because I liked the foliage on the left. The photo is more or less the entire sensor frame (just cropped a tiny bit)

I deleted my 1st edit and then I tried expanding the canvas to the right to preserve the pretty foliage on the left. Here's the new edit. In any case, your original is gorgeous!
