Hanh,
Very nice images indeed and hard to choose one over the others.
I guess I would choose #3 because it has a stronger dynamic than the other two. It seems to be telling more of a story so to speak. It's background not nearly a nice as the others but I still am drawn to it for some reason. Thanks for sharing them with us.

Hi JayT,
I know it's a tough choice. That's why I asked everyone for help. I think number 3 is my favorite also. Thank you for your input.

Hello Lady_bug and Welcome to the forum. Hehehe.
My vote goes for #2. I like that shot because the subject was photographed in a way that really makes it stand out from the background. Having a clean, non-distracting background helps to achieve this affect. I also like the framing with the bird looking to the left and how the subject is positioned on the right side of the frame. Also the texture and color patterns on the feathers are striking. Nice pleasing green color tones adds to the peaceful quality of the photo.

Hi Hanh,
So nice to see you finally have your nick name and a post of your own.
Wow tough decision on my favorite because I like Roadrunners, but I'm
going to have to pick #3 because of the DOF, Lighting and Composition.
It was nice seeing you, the hubby and the kids on Sunday.
Thanks
Tim
Hi Tim
I thought you only like action shots? If that's the case, I would never match Andy's skills. That's why I go for the artistic looks.
Thanks so much. See you around.

Hanh,
I like all good photography, and that includes yours you take some wonderful images.
Keep them coming.
I won't pick a favorite. I really like them all. Your title, at least the "Artistic Bird Shots" part is right on the money. These are more about the art than about the specific birds to me. Keep 'em coming.
Excellent "first" post, three wonderful images... However, I didn't realize I was going to be tested.
Well... they're all good and I really do like each one, but my favorite is:
#3 Because I like the feel of this image... overcast light, very peaceful, my eye goes directly to the darker bird in the right front which is in pleasing contrast to all of the other white birds. Wonderful reflection, shallow DOF as focus fades nicely into the distance.
Very well done on all three of these Hanh, you have an excellent eye and skilled technical ability.
Kirk
Thank you very much for your opinion. See you at BC sometime.

Hi Hanh
This is a hard one. I like all of them. I have to say if I have to pick it will be #2. I like the pose,simplicity of the image and the bokeh.

Thank you Harsha. This is the first time anyone has ever complimented to me about 'bokeh'. Thanks again.
What, my "thunderbirda" only lasted 2 weeks Congrats on your own FM identity and these pics are a great way to
kick it off! I'm going with #3 for the cool lighting/reflections. Lookin' forward to more 'buggin...Will
Congratulations on finally getting your own account on FM. I was getting very confused trying to keep up with you and Andy using the same account. You are free now
Every one of these photos is beautiful in their own right and I can see why you would want to print and keep them. I like the last shot - beautiful colors, nicely framed and the reflections pull your interest into the frame - a wall hanger in every regards.

Hi Mr. Zoom (Ken),
