American Goldfinch male (Carduelis tristis)

Saw him catching a few rays of morning sun whilst trying to hide from me in the pines, haha, I got the cutie anyway! o:)
Location
Ohio, my yard
Date taken
Dec 18 2010
Scientific name
Carduelis tristis
Equipment used
Kodak easyshare, 6.1 megapix-woohoo;)
brilliant focusing Lindy among those pine needles, guess there is no use hiding from you.

do you do your focus manually.
 
So different to our Goldies, but so pretty, also I have been fortunate enough to experience both species. Super image Lindy, love the soft, pastel like colours, good work.

Excellent picture of this little favorite! I love the pine needles providing some protection for the Goldie yet allowing for a detailed picture. Well done!
 
Work of art,Lindy!! What a stunning shot this is. The Pine needles make a difference!! Great work. :clap: Love this.
 
o:) Oh, WOW, chica, look what a marvel you've got with your camera... this proves it's not necessary an expensive equipment to take wonderful pictures!!! A howling beauty of Goldfinch picture, Lindy!!!!! :clap: :clap:
