Steve, he is a handsome fellow and just the right place to find him - nicely composed and the moss really helps to give some depth... you made the most of a difficult situation :-) Bee

Even though the chimneys (or whatever they are) help frame the subject, I would have cropped them out to lend more strength to the central image. You have the perfect amount of spacing below and above the subject, so that the roof, the wall, the moss and the bird cropped to make the image square would imo make an already striking image even more so. I would also crop a bit tighter on the left than on the right....better balance. Fremiet

A creative capture for one who is forced to be inside, Steve - the moss at the roof-line is great! Nice image. Bev
