Tennesee Warbler

[Paul Kammen]

Was photographing some warblers as they flew about wildflowers in Texas in late April. This Tennessee was near some yellow
flowers, though the background has some busyness to it, but tried to do what I could with the image..

Hi Paul,

Nice little warbler! they always tend to be skulking around somewhere busy.

I like the idea of the warbler and the flowers. Like with your Painted Bunting, I find the bird to be a bit cramped in the top third of the frame.

Also, I find that the bottom two OOF blooms don't really add to the composition, so would crop them and open up the top if you have it.

Thanks for sharing,

Gerald

Paul , nicely shown but for me a little too big in the frame, I suspect this was a deliberate choice because of the busy background.

Hi Jonathan, yes, busy background but also branches behind him too.
