Beautiful shot of the bird in it's element, with the element mainly hinted at with the soft DOF.
Paul Milholland27-Jun-2009 03:37
That's a really nice shot, Vern.
Debbie24-Jun-2009 00:54
Great catch. He seems so tiny and lonely in the shot.
Pete Rodgers 23-Jun-2009 18:06
Beautiful, love how you how you controlled the DOF.
Barry Ailetcher23-Jun-2009 16:40

Superb capture Vern. Couldn't be better, excellent clarity and colour and that beautiful background adds to making this a special image. *v*

A wonderful catch Vern. Pleased you got to see one at last.

Beautifully caught Vern.

Uncommonly good capture!
Laura Milholland23-Jun-2009 00:36
Vern, that is EXCELLENT! I've only ever gotten shots one time and only seen them twice ever! Not only is it exciting because it is a new bird for you, but it is a fabulous shot! V

I love how the background colours blend with the bird. Top image!

For sure it's a yellowthroat, but I don't know about common. HA HA Actually that's part of the name. but I don't think common applies out here in the west. I've never seen one either. And not only did you get to see one, you got a great photo of it too! It's always so exciting to find new things!!!!
Jeanne Newman22-Jun-2009 23:19
There is nothing common about this! :-)

That's a great shot of it. The background really compliments it.

Beautiful composition and clarity, Vern. Just lovely, and yes, rather dreamy.
DB Hans22-Jun-2009 22:53
This one has a nice dreamy feel to it, a really nice image!

Awwwwwwww, adorable little bandito. Very nice catch and angles Vern. Linda S
