Very nice, Sandy. The rich colors and background vegetation add a lot. Love the interaction. A little more room on the left if you have it. Well done.

Hi Sandy,
Well...reposted or not it's a cute shot! I agree with Jerry that it would be nice to have a little more room on the left if possible. To me it seems like you might have stopped down a little more than needed (and than optimal) here. I say this because if anything there's excessive DoF here (the background could have been a little softer) and after f11 you definitely start softening up the image on that camera (owing to diffraction).
Thanks for sharing this one (again! ).
Cheers...
Brad
