Support Many thanks for the nomination and comments. It took all day to get a couple of decent shots of this lovely finch, but I think it was worth it. Hopefully I'll get the male in a similar pose next time. --Baresi F (talk) 06:58, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Really very nice, well done. I remember being camouflaged for hours at the mercy of bloodsucking mosquitoes in the jungle of Margarita Island for a poor decision. Sometimes it is simply a matter of luck --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 12:51, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Wilfredo. It would be worth putting up with a lot to get a lucky shot like that :) --Baresi F (talk) 18:55, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In certain circumstances, it is about making a burst of 100 pictures, and then do the big task of evaluating each photograph. Nice Shoot, you are welcome --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 02:30, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose We have so many birds, that the bar is very high... I can only oppose when it has chromatic noise on the "shoulders" (see note)--Jebulon (talk) 16:47, 16 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing that out Jebulon, as I'd definitely missed it. I've uploaded a new version with the chroma noise reduced - is it any better? comment of Baresi franco who forget sign

Yes, it is better, and I'm proud if my comment made the picture better, but I still see something... Anyway, I'm not a good judge anymore. I've seen a flaw once, and now I only see this part of your picture, sorry...--Jebulon (talk) 16:08, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Human nature. :) We may not see the flaws initially, but when we eventually spot it, we keep focusing on that. I've had this experience many time before. ;) --(✉→Arctic Kangaroo←✎) 02:13, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
