The larger version is so sharp and detailed.  The light is great.

Hi Dennis
Very good detail. What is the Sidekick set at?  Great overall shot.

I like the perch here.  Wish the background was a little more out of focus but the bird pops anyway.  The detail and color on the Sparrow is wonderful.  This is a species that has yet to make it to my area.
