I like the composition of this with the inclusion of the branch. I sure hope spring is around the corner! I think the brightness could be toned down a little and I'd try a little boost in contrast. Sharon

What Sharon said. Way too bright on the robin. Nicely placed and a pleasing bg. Detail looks good.

A pretty image Jack, thanks for posting. I'd probably also tone down the brightness slightly, but I quite like the pano comp

Jack,

I like how you cropped this into a pano, the neat textures and tones of the oak branch and the pose of the robin.

I'd also suggest toning this down slightly, the robin especially. I'm sure the details look nice in the full sized version.

Lovely shot, your Robins are a little different to ours in the uk but a lovely bird and I like the the way the background blends in with the branch great
