Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent. Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature. Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Hi Darryl, i am no expert when it comes to these sort of pics as i am still playing with pics other than bikes LOL so it looks ok to me other than background being bright, distracts from the birdie but i know that cant be helped but he looks ok to me.

Yes it looks like it Darryl, but dont take my word mate i like the pic either way just that bright leaf sort of takes it away from the bird. Maybe someone who is into birdies might know more. But is just that we have a bright back ground and bird is a lil darker see all this brightness when u first look at pic.
