I second Reigh; the first one is a beautiful capture, Sindri - and the second one is very close to the first!

Hi Sindri,
two nice captures, especially # 1, beautiful composition, sharp, nice bokeh.
How much do you sharpen you shots, do you unsharp mask or just sharpen in certain areas?
Regards,
Clare

Both shots Sindri are very stunning with excellent detail, colour and pose, it's very difficult to choose which one I like the best of the two, but studying very closely for overall composition is the first one, well done.

Both are nice of the bird but the composition and bokeh in the first reaaly grabbed most of my attention. The perch in the first shot is excellent as well......top of a Spruce of some type?
