I can see why you couldn't resist it. A stunning, uplifting image of this beautiful Robin. I love Snowdrops; they are always so pristine and fresh looking. Lovely work Christine.

Thankyou.this little guy will keep me going as I have to a spend a couple of days sorting out m/bike rally shots (4yrs worth!!!),so just seeing him on the screen will remind me to hurry up and get back outside again(when it stops raining).

Wow Christine, this is breath taking. Fantastic perch, setting, lighting, feather detail, eye contact, color, and composition. The flowers to the right is brilliant. Perfection!!!
