Love the colors of the berries! Thanks rw2. We replaced a Mountain Ash with the Washinton Hawthorne, but despite the similar color to the Ash, the berries are not as popular. hTr wrote in post #4552381 Super Capture Carl, Love the colors and BG Thanks Gary. That means a lot coming from all the fabulous shots you take! bugaboo wrote in post #4552400 Oh wow the DOF in this is fantastic, amazing how it looks almost 3-dimensional. Thanks bugaboo. I was about 20' away from the bird, and my roof was another 20-25' away, providing the backdrop at f8.0. ajosteve wrote in post #4552411 Great shot Carl, are these redpolls an import from India....steve Thanks Steve. I'm not sure if they are 'imported'. I always assumed they were indigenous, but I do see some references to India. I'll have to do a little more research. -Carl

We used to have a Mountain Ash there with even prettier orange berries, but kept losing the trees to borers, so the Washington Hawthorne was a more hardy replacement. Sindri Skulason wrote in post #4553985 Beautiful shot with wonderful bokeh. Love the pose and composition. Thanks Sindri. These guys are flighty, but if you move slowly you can get close. This morning I got within 4 feet of them when filling the feeders. Anke wrote in post #4554277 Lovely image, Carl. Great composition. Thanks Anke. I usually strive for composition, though it is nice to get those close portrait shots too. -Carl
