21 Jul 24 Reply Their home is in the Arctic! Jul 19th
21 Jul 24 Comment Well done too on the Showcase honour - Great Pic! Jul 16th
21 Jul 24 Comment Wonderful action shot, caught at the perfect moment. You even have flakes of snow falling from the top bird! Is it part of a courtship ritual? The birds show up so well against the background! Jul 11th
21 Jul 24 Comment Absolutely perfect image. Wish it was mine! Jul 11th
21 Jul 24 Comment Super capture, shows those wonderful feet off well! Caught in a great position on the tree. Plenty of definition in the white plumage. Jul 11th
21 Jul 24 Comment Great capture with the beak-full of food. Some good definition in the feathers which can be difficult with dark plumage. Position on the branch is fine. In UK, competition judges have an unkind definition 'Bird on a stick', but I can't think that this applies to this image! Jul 11th
21 Jul 24 Comment Well caught shot of the two different birds in a great position together in the frame. As usual, with the variation of colours, exposure is to some extent a compromise, and you have done well to keep problem to a minimum. There is still a slight bit of white-out to the front bird, which could perhaps be reduced a bit further? Jul 11th
21 Jul 24 Comment Gorgeous capture. The positioning of the parent and the chicks is perfect, and I know how difficult it is to achieve that! One to be very proud of! Jul 11th
21 Jul 24 Reply They are slightly smaller than Canadas! Jul 8th
21 Jul 24 Comment I was there yesterday, and actually all three are still there! Jul 3rd

34 Jul 24 Reply Many Thanks! Jul 29th
34 Jul 24 Comment I think the word for this type of thing is 'Pareidolia'. Well seen and created! A fun image, and humour in photography is always welcome! Perhaps could do with lightening the dark areas slightly? Jul 11th
34 Jul 24 Comment Gorgeous creation! I know very little about hummingbirds since we are not fortunate to get them in UK, so you have taught me something as well! My only though is that the LHS is too bright and could be toned down to a similar colour to the rest of the background, since it keeps drawing my eye away from the main image? Jul 11th
34 Jul 24 Comment I can see why you chose the title. This is one that grows on me the more I come back to it. Where I originally thought it was too simple, I now appreciate the image you have constructed! Jul 11th
34 Jul 24 Comment Lovely image in it's simplicity. One to be proud of! A slightly larger frame the same hue as the feathers would capture the image well. Jul 11th
34 Jul 24 Comment You have blended the blooms well to make a colourful image. For some reason the green stalks don't seem to go well with the flowers themselves, and I wonder if they are really needed? A small frame would set the whole image off well!
Nevertheless this is a beautiful creation.		 Jul 11th
