Bev :-)

Hi Jose.
What a wonderful picture with amazing subject and splendid colours. I am impressed a lot. Great use ISO 800 and other exposure parameters. Fantastic pictorials BG, wonderful details and colouration of the bird and twigs. You managed to create a true masterpiece which would be desirable to look and look again. Bravo, my friend.

I see very little noise for such a high ISO. I rarely go above 400 with my xti. I think the camera focused on the branch rather than on your pretty bird's eye. The color is wonderful. Good luck with your Caracas bird project.

Hi Jose Miguel and nice to see you back here and posting, my friend!

This is a splendid shot of this beautiful canary, one in which the colors really shine and stand out even from the thumbnail!
The details on the bird are also good, especially considerring the fact that it's such a fast one.
I like the nice DOF that you used and the lovely BG it produced, as well.
Reading your note, i couldn't help seeing that we use very much the same settings when shooting our subjects :)
I also use the evaluative metering a lot, the one-shot AF and hardly any flash ;) However, i use the sRGB and usually tend to use a lower ISO (my camera body is not that good as yours). But still it's fun :)

Anyway, wonderful work, amigo!
Bravo and TFS

Hi Jose!

It's difficult to critique a perfect picture. The technical criterions are all perfectly fulfilled. All I can add is my personal and subjective feeling: I like the picture very much, the colors are superb and the bird is very well highlighted by the blurred background.

Kind regards

Hi Jose Miguel,
this is a very pretty bird!
The dappled BG really compliments the bright yellow plumage.
Superb diagonal composition.
Sharp with great details.
Focus seems slightly off the eye but I can see it must have been hard to focus on it seeing as the branch is such a more appealing focus-point for the cameras auto-focus.

Excellent lighting and colours.
Superb note.
Well done my friend.
You've adapted to the 40D incredibly well.

Thanks,
Joe

Hello Jose Miguel,

Morning light always make good picture and you have capitalized the good lighting here very well. The light and shadow work very well in your composition. The branch makes good perspective of a very well perched position of this beauty. The sharpness and detail of this bird are flawless and contrasting well with the blurry background. Well done and very best regards,

Hola JoseMiguel:

No tengo perdón, cada vez que quiero poner un comentario en una de tus fotos está tan visitada que no lo hago en espera de que publiques la siguiente, pero cuando me acuerdo y esta a tope, como ahora mismo. Por añadidura escribi una nota antes que Necipp, lo puedes comprobar por la lista de "Util" y se ve que salí de página antes de que se publicara. Me pasa de todo brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!

Amigo mío, yo quisiera comentártelas todas las fotos por que además de que lo valen por que eres muy bueno, tienes tiempo de criticar las mias que como puedes ver hay una pequeña diferencia de comentarios. Esta es la diferencia en un buen fotógrafo y un aficionado.

Hablar ahora solo de la perfección de este canario es por añadidura, porque dar un vistazo a toda tu galería es una gozada. Lo que siento es solo poder darte dos puntos cuando realmente merecerías un 10 en cada obra.

Recibe un fuerte abrazo amigo mio.

Josep.

Hallo Jose Miguel
This is a super shot of a beautiful yellow bird. No wonder there is a colour scheme called Canary Yellow. I have seen many of these birds before, but this one is an absolute eye-catcher. The colour of the beak is rather striking, almost like the colour of pearls. The catch light in the eye place the cherry on the cake and rounds of this beautiful photo. Thank you for sharing this beauty with us. A beautiful photo. I like the way you photographed it from below, facing the camera upwards. Framing and presentation are excellent. Thanks for the interesting note.
Kind regards

Hi Jose,
looks like you have captured a piece of the sun and placed it in a tree,wow what a very yellow little bird and yellow is my favorite colour.The colour is excellent and the point of view is good too and unusual for you I see some softness of focus with this little one's head details but don't let that make you think it is a bad shot-it isn't.I have the same camera and it drives me to distraction as I have a number of photos that are not quite focused sharp enough but at the time of my shots appeared sharp in the view finder.A nice photo and thank you for this little piece of the sun,it is a beautiful bird.
