This is another image from a slide scan. This is from our backyard in WV. Your comments are welcome. Chet

This image has a very nice mood presented with the falling show. Pleasant composition and environment. The environment is a bit busy, but not overly distracting for me. The quality loss from the slide scan is pretty significant though. Very grainy and not much detail in the plumage of the bird. I'm guessing if this slide was sharp out of the camera, there is a lot more detail than what is presented here.

Ditto what Keith said. It is a nice pose though.

Lovely setting and nice job with the reds, it's pretty noisy so I would run some nr on the bg. :toast:
