A sweet shot of this little tit, Herman!
Would go just a little darker though. The white appears to be blown ... :roll:

Herman, THe whites seem hot. If you had underexposed for the BG and then used flash as main light, the BG would not be as distracting. I'm sure he was not easy to capture.

Herman, this is very nice. The BG is a tad busy but I love the detail in the bird.

Beautiful shot, Herman; wish it were mine.

Are you sure this isn't a Marsh Tit?

Herman:

Nice capture, a little "S" in curves will make it pop.
