Beautifully rendered, Maria. The photo is OK but the PP is outstanding.
Best wishes,
Andrew

Beautiful....
people often overlook sparrows as little brown jobs [LBJs in birder-speak]....
it is a picture like this that shows just how attractive they are!
Never be afraid to talk about your techniques...

What can I say? In anyone else's hands the image would be good but unremarkable. In your hands Maria it turns into a masterpiece.
Beautiful, stunning and charming. I've said it before and I'll say it again, if you re not selling your images for lots of money to greetings card companies then you should be!!

Maria, I can not add much more to what has already been said other than you are in a class of your own when it comes to these photo renditions! I love the curvy fence line...did you bow it or was it like that originally?
