Hi Simon

What a splendid robin close-up!
I relly like the low-angled POV you had here and also the very beautiful pose you caught it in - with its head turned to you and giving you that charming eye-contact.
The details are gorgeous and the colors are lovely and well saturated.
I must also remark that the DOF is simply impeccable and it isolated the subject perfectly from the BG.
The exposure is spot-on, the framing is very nice and the composition is superb, too.
Is that you i see there in that small reflection in its eye? ;))

Bravo and TFS

hi simon,
very impressive capture of robin, the pose captured is very nice, looks like the bird is lookin in to the lens,
well saturated colours, nice pov, the blurry bg has isolated the bird from the surroundings,
well done,

Hi Simon,
Your first robin and a happy little chappy he is!You got in nice and close and caught him in a wonderful inquisitive pose.The colour and detail are just great....which is quite amazing when you realize its ISO 800.A perfect DOF with all the important features clear and sharp.Good luck at the library.

Robins always photograph well... they always look so endearing. Only criticism would have to be the concrete that he's stood on, but we can't have everything...

Great shot. You are so lucky with the Robin. that is one of the advantages of living ina city - in the countryside wher I live they are a lot harder to get close to would you beleive it!

It is a great shot of him/her and your composition is excellent. I am amazed at the lack of noise at ISO800, but sometimes the camera can surprise us.

Good luck with the course deadlines and TFS

Hi Simon,
Magnificent capture of this Robin!
You got a so crisp and razorshar image of him.
I like all details on the plumage.
It's very good the composition and the eye contact.
I like so much the DOF used and the way you put the background away.
I'm impressed also for the 800 ISO and no noise visible.
Congratulations and thanks for share.
My best regards,
JM

This is a beautiful capture of this cute bird Simon. I love this DOF, great eye contact, colors and details. I wish we have this bird here too but I made up my idea about it now... Congratulations for this first very good capture. He has a very lovely pose too :) Thanks,

With ISO 800, it is a miraculous feat not to get even the faintest noise in this lovely first picture of Robin from you, Simon.
It is a great picture in every respect.
Don't let your job too much in the way in your creative pursuits!
Best regards.

You have pictured this cute bird at very nice moment. Its pose and expression of eyes are wonderful. Colours and details of the bird are reproduced with great skillfulness. Your DOF and POV are selected very well. FG and BG are looked nicely. Superb work. My compliments and TFS.
