I want to thank everyone who commented on my previous post . I didn't sharpen this image quite as much.

This is excellent, Denny!! I love the vibrant colors. :)

I deleted your first attempt at posting this one since it had no image.

Splendid shot, and the degree of sharpening looks good.

I always admire a great warbler shot and this one is no exception! They are so difficult to get.

Denny,
Add my name to the list of admirers. At first I thought it was a tad light but repositioning the laptop screen corrected that mistaken impression. Excellent capture.

This is a beauty!

This would be a good candidate for selective sharpening. I think you have slight noise from higher ISO on that lovely BG and the USM brings it out more. Just ask if you want any help in doing that. This is a very minor thing but your image seems otherwise excellent.

Congrats!

Oh Denny, this is nice. My kind of perch, beautiful pose and BG. The noise is hurting this somewhat and very worth removing it.

can't wait to see what else you've got.

Top shot. Love the vivid colours. Certainly worth selective sharpening.

The only thing left to make this image perfect would be my name in the lower right corner. :)

See you this spring!

I love these birds and this pose here is excellent! I am also noticing the BG noise mentioned which could be an easy fix in PS if you wee so inclined. :)

Vibrant color and good balance. You could still sharpen just a bit less IMHO.
