Not Quite There … but Closing In
Trying to find the right focus adjustments, metering, lens choices, aperture/shutter speed/ISO combinations that more-or-less consistently give me images that satisfy me.
This photo is nice, but the lens used, while giving me the shutter speeds I prefer, forces me to crop the overall image size to eliminate extraneous content. That leaves me with a physical sized image too small for most publishers' needs.

It's ok if it's going on a cell phone case, greeting card or postage stamp, but if you're looking to cover a big hole in your wall, this one's not for you.
Chickadee photo … same story.
Both are beautiful shots, but I prefer the 2nd one. I love how you captured the stripes in the chickadee's feathers.
Funny you prefer the chickadee; twice today when I was putting seed in the feeder, the chickadee flew in and landed inches away from my hand. It's a different feeling than seeing it through a lens.
House Finch … still not large enough for most publications.
House Finch ? I'd rather see a yard Finch ...
The species used to be referred to as "Purple Finch".
I once knew a girl named Anita Finch. She was quite a bird.
I love all three of them Mac.
Love little chickadees-- they're so busy and happy! Wonderful pictures!
