Robins are definitely sun worshipers.

    Beautiful shot Ric, love the colors and the Bokeh. clap.gif
    I can never seem to get a Robin with an interesting background. They are always in the middle of someone's lawn hunting for worms.

    While the robin is nice, its really amazing how well the framing, bokeh and other components of this picture really 'make' it.

    Nice shot.

    Thanks, Steve.mwink.gif

    I agree with your assessment.....the robin would be uninteresting without the rest.

    Good pic. Can't tell if it's a male or female. THe chest is kind of out of the pic. Looks kind of like a Male.

    Aha some back-lighting that could have made the shot a bust and you turned it into a stunning photo..Nice job!
