Beautiful, I like everything about it... color, detail and background. I prefer the color version.

Beautiful, Steve.

They come up as two different images and I don't think one is 'better' than the other. They both work in their own way.

Thank you joe, this was shot backlit, with a flash and bounce card. The beautiful diffused colors of the background are from backlit pine limbs, in the distance.


The more I shoot, the more I think the background is more important than the subject.

Thanks donald. I've always thought chickadee's make for a good b&w. I've been practicing on my b&w's again, trying to perfect my conversion.

I cannot agree more, I am always looking beyond the subject to find a pleasing background, moving and changing the angle that works the best.
