Hi,

This is the same junco that I posted earlier, but a different shot. I followed Nate and Sandy's suggestions for cropping and removing some nonessential elements to the composition.................................Jim

Love it! I think this is an improvement of an already-good image. This is much "cleaner" and neater.
The blowing snow is great, and having most of the branches in focus adds a lot..
Sorry, a tiny nit - the snow by the eye. Maybe clone out, or at least clone out the flurry closest to the eye.
Very Sweet image!

A good one! Technically, I agree with Sandy, but I think that little snowflake in the Junco's eye tells a whole story by itself!

I like the simplicity and winter feel of this.

This is really nice Jim. I love the nice warm browns in an obviously very cold and blowing setting. The branches provide a really nice perch and framing element too.

Another nice winter Junco image, Jim. In the smaller image the snow flakes just under the eye look weird-like an out of place double catchlight, but in the larger image it becomes obvious what they are. Nice work.
