What's left to say? I think Karl has covered it all!

Beautiful set, Tim. I'm impressed that you get close enough with a 300 to get such detail. Well done.

Dave

Always a good idea to follow Karl, I have been doing that for a long time!!

Getting that close to a finch with a 300 is a rare treat Dave!!

Thanks for all the good words.

Superb shots, no.4 hummer looks terrific with the nice bright flowers and a purple bokeh!

Thanks Wing!!

That purple was a post in the background, I was so trying to get that in the bokeh, glad you noticed.

4 very most excellent shots, Sir Tim. The only nit I have are those blechy flowers in the last two which could easily be cloned out

The Swallow is a killer shot! Color,exposure and the sharpness are all excellent.
And the hummer shots are beautiful captures. I like the composition in both hummer shots. I like the fadeout of the flower in #3,
giving a sense of depth to the image and the composition of the flowers in #4 works very well.

Hide

Hi Hide!!

I'm so glad you like the swallow, I was so excited to see him in that light.

Thanks for the thoughtful comment, I'm pleased that you like them.

Ooooooooooh a super set Tim. What a beautiful pose and colors and detail on the swallow. Similarly for the goldfinch and I don't see anything wrong with the perch, sure they will perch on anything

As for the hummer shots, in the first one its great to get the tongue out like that, a sweet capture, but for me the real beauty in the shot is how the flower disappears off into the distance behind the bird, like a highway to another world. And the last shot has such a variety of colors even in the bg.
A really excellent and enjoyable set my friend.
Martin

Hey Martin!!

Oh my friend you are way too kind with your words

Glad you like the finch, I'm quite proud of that shot. The hummer tongue is an amazing treat, that my friend is luck

Yes the flower fading into the bg is nice. You should have heard Tom and I ooh and ahhing as the bird sat there!!

Thanks so much
