Field Sparrow

[Knight]

Tought i would include some environment with this little guy, think the BG turned out pretty good on this one.

Great colors, catchlight & overall lighting. I also agree that the background turned out very well, nice shot!:thumbsup:

However, the bird is a tad small, and maybe too far to the left...?

I've never seen a Field one - but have seen many other sparrow species. Thanks for sharing.

Nice one, knight.

The spot lighting in the background just behind the sparrow is very nice.

Very nice environmental shot. There are times I prefer these over close up portraits.

Very good shot, the environment adds greatly to this. Nice background indeed.

I prefer the first one. I like the softer look - like nature put the early morning spotlight on the little fellow. Second is harsh and draws my eye to two distinct levels; bird and blurred bush. Don't know which one to look at. - TF

I like the first one more, too. It looks softer/more natural. And the branches at the bottom help "balance" the image, so it doesn't seem to be tipping over toward the left.

The second seems a little over-sharpened and "tipping over".

great environmental of a very cool sparrow. It looks more tree sparrow with that eye stripe, but I don't see the dot on the chest....... hmmmmmmm....... your ID must be correct them
