Bonjour Michel,
A high quality image!
I like so much the sharpness and great definition got on the bird.
It's so good its shining plumage, as well as the pose caught.
You did it great with the DOF and the blurred background, it stand out so well the bird.
Love the catchlight on the eye!
Felicitacions et merci du partager.

Great bird image Michel.
Composition, exposure and sharpness are superb.
Details in the feathers, the glow of the blue feathers, the matching colors and patterns of the tree trunk and the soft background are most wonderful.
Perfect work.
A real joy to look at.
Thanks for sharing.
Kindest regards, Harry

Hi Michel.
Thank you for your amazing comments, kind words and honorary decision.
Your present shot is outstanding. I am impressed so much. To photograph this bird is so difficult task. You have solved it perfectly. Terrific pictured scene at whole, amazing lighting and colours, wonderful combination of perfectly detailed sharp main subject (beautiful sparrow and impressive trunk) and extremely smooth, nicely coloured BG. Bravo and my congratulations. One more my favorite shot.
Alexei.

P.S. I am trying to picture this bird and cannot get good shots yet.

Hi Michel,

What a shot. This is superb! You really know how to wield that panasonic "point-and-shoot". Incredible. The detail on the bird is good, the DOF absolutely spot-on, yet the BG is perfectly OOF. I love the picture. Well done!

Jan-Hendrik

Will be back to award the points, my smileys are finished.
