Was at a local wetland and Saw this Song sparrow singing.  There was a number of different colored bushes on the other side of the lake.  I positioned myself to try and get as many colors a i could and came away with this rainbow colored background.

Any comments and critiques are always welcome.

Thanks

The background is magical, Ryan. What color, and the singing pose of the sparrow is excellent. Well done!

Ryan, Like the background, perch, and comp. I think I would try and lighten up the bird just a tad so it stands out from the background a little more?

Great environment for this little songster. Love the colors. Reminds me of hearing them and seeing them every day in the early morning in Rockport Mass. on the headlands. They often start one's day with their cheery song. Sweet!
