Beautiful image. Great background and exposure. As others will probably confirm, the shot would probably be stronger if the bird were placed on the left side of the frame, but I still like this one very much.

A fine image, Michel. I agree with Todd's framing suggestion.

Agree with Todd as well. In the BG the Jay is very striking and well exposed.

This is sweet!! I love the pose and the background. Also agree with Todd's framing suggestion. I hope you got some with him looking the other direction too. :)

Excellent pose, tack sharp, and the lighting is near perfect (reflected off the snow?). Besides the placement, maybe some detail/color in the background - just don't know what to make of all that black.
