something a little different.

c&c always welcome

thank you for looking :)
 
Nice idea, but I think the composition is a little plain - the bird silhouette is slap-bang centre of picture, and then there's lots of [sorry] uninteresting sky - did you try looking at a cropped down version to increase the "interesting" area a bit?

This is just my 2p... Please don't take personally - it's my opinion, not everyone's - last time I said I didn't like a photo the following 5 commentators said they really liked it!
 
Sorry Tom.......this one (unusually for your pictures) doesn't hit the spot for me.

The subject seems far too distant and there is a lot of redundant sky.

i would say, if the photo can take it, crop out more of the sky getting a tighter crop on the bird. I do like the shot, and pictures like these can be tricky to get right, maybe if you did decide to recrop, post the result.
Nice to see things from a different perspective and time of day.

it is a great idea Tom which I like think it would look better with less of the sky and it is nice to see something different

appreciate all your comments - thank you very much. my perspective on this shot is that whilst there is the song thrush perched right on the top of the tree but against a very nice evening sky and it was looking to combine both. to my eyes it was an unusual combination and hence the usage of that particular crop - going tighter would have lost those sky tones.

No probs - the joy of 'togging is that there's no "right and wrong", so if you like it that's what matters! (y)

Of course this pleasure is mainly 'cos I'd be completely penniless! :LOL:
