Excellent first post and welcome to NSN, Angela!
Pretty perch and very nice head angle ... perhaps just a tad over sharpened.

Beautiful image in every respect.
I think you'll find more appreciation for this one here than on the other site you posted at. What is so funny to me is that when I look at the work of the ones who knock how this image was made, so much of their "pure natural" work is cluttered and unattractive.
I would be proud of this one, it's very nice.

Angela,

Beautiful shot and composition. The perch and the eye contact really make this special.
