Hard to chose between these two shots. Both are very nice and well exposed with good color and BG. I think the Titmouse shows a little more detail in the feathers and I prefer the BG in this shot as well however I would be quite happy with either shot.

Wow...these are both amazing. Very sharp with good colours. Love the pose and bokeh. Excellent work. :-)


Best regards

Both are fantastic photos. I would give them a little more space in the tail side ... just a little ... imho.

Two birds I see often with no decent images to show for all my work. I would be extremely pleased with these. Nice work. The titmouse actually appears to be still. :)

Very nice...both of them!

I would however use the shadow/highlight in CS to bring out a bit more detail in the cardinal by playing with the shadow function...it will make a world of a difference.

I would be very pleased with these.

Well Done.
