Jim Snarski - Flying Colors Numerous things about this turn me off. One is the busy background which is distracting. Another is the wholly unnecessary caption. Bird lovers will recognize the species, the rest of us will see two birds. Camera, lens, the sliding glass door, etc., add nothing. And probably most annoying (to nitpicker me anyway) is the incorrect use of "it's" instead of "its."
I disagree about the caption. I'm not a bird person, but think of myself as ignorant. I *like* having the particular birds identified. As to the details of shooting it -- this is a photographer's mailing list, lots of us would be curious, if the information wasn't given.
