Maybe not the greatest perch but the pose and the background are excellent. I can almost hear him singing, he's really belting it out here.

The OOF horizontal lines in the BG work surprisingly well here. A nice photo.

Edit: of course I meant diagonal lines :oops:

To get one of these guys as nice as this.....I'd take any perch I could get. Nice job getting this guy singing his heart out. He sure has character!!

Excellent shot. The BG and perch give a linear quality to this image that I like.
