[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A finch feeds on thistle at my back yard feeder. I really like how the background helped to put focus on the bird in this image. The red is a nice contrast from the white and yellow in the birds feathers. Taken from a tripod with an external flash.

John,
I also like the shallow DOF! I am not so sure the unfiltered fill flash helped a "whole bunch" here. It did allow for you to get some good catch light in the eyes but it created quite a glare on the plastic tube feeder. Maybe that was the sun, I don't know. Nevertheless, I like this photo and think you've done a good job placing it in the frame. The majority of the bird is in the top right third, looking down into the bottom left third, it's fairly textbook composition!

Well done John,

Scott
