Very nice Greg! Did you scan the image yourself? If you did, you should get points for a job well done.

When I mentioned the cropping, guess I brought it up stictly as a photo. I know that birders feel strongly that whatever imperfections on a bird (or animal) it should stay.Jessica

Greg, I think you did a super job with track focusing. The DOF really very nice, I like that the wing tips are blurred.
I have no doubts that you wish the other geese weren't in the photo (or at least not in that poisition). As you mentioned to me, can't you just remove them? There seems to be a lot of area to copy from (only my thoughts).
That's not to take away from a technically well executed photo that you've done, great job!

Rachel, looking at your portfolio, your market is the average Joe and Jane. It's too bad you don't seem to care about their opinions, they are the ones you are serving.
Rachel, don't you think there's a reason I've spent my time typing you comments.
Oh, I did post a couple of my photos, Jessica

Very nice Steve! I know it's a vault but ~ the low contrast and soft saturation really create a superb photo.Jessica
ps ~ I finally felt that I understood PN enough to post a few photos. Drop by if you get some time.

Rachel, no I haven't had photos posted and sincerly don't know what difference that would make. I'll make a wild guess that most people that purchase photos for their office or home, don't take photos other than just family or vacation snapshots. They are being critics by purchasing the photos they like, that's their commentary.
If you wander around PN, you'll see that some of the most knowledgable critics, don't post photos. It's hard to be constructive and honest without narrow minded individuals just plain responding with anger and hate.
Now, I tend to learn and study what I'm about to do before jumping in with both feet. I actually read and study before using my camera (or, as they use to say, before trying to program my VCR).
The thing that confuses me most is, why do PN members feel that someone needs to take earth shattering and stunning photos to have indepth knowlege about photography?

Mary, I knew it was yours before I saw the name. Trees, background and DOF are generally the same, just different birds.
This is a really nice photo, excellent exposure and of course, your timing to get his pose.

OK Jason, don't really see big issues with this photo, only some small ones.The halo around the finch, not nice.

Excellent Jason!Jessica

Jason, I can't believe the second post is the original since it's vertical. Anyway, assuming that it is, I would like to see the young man in the upper left area with area down and out to the right for best composition.Jessica

Dave, I really agree with Tom, the ring around the sun is way cool.
I've also been to Mt Rainier and know that once the clouds start to form, watch out.

Now, this is much nicer than the other posts and I totally agree with Ross.Jessica

Chris, great photo!
Can you explain to me your use of the extra matting at the top and bottom ~ for me, it's not visually appealing. It makes it look like film without the holes.

Steve, I think you've taken a great photo. The exposure and composition are right on.Giving my thoughts of what isn't working, it's that your photo is too busy, too much horizontal and not enough vertical or diagonal.
Colors, tones and exposure are terrific.
