Melissa Hintz in reply to Anne Smyth’s comment
Thank you so much Anne! It was up high in the tree and I soooo wanted to have wings to get above it or in front of it. LOL

Beautiful light and color. Excellent DOF. I like the fact that you backed off more than usual for this subject, showing some environment.
Melissa Hintz in reply to John Wright’s comment
Thank you so much John! I feel like you know me. :) I really didn’t have a choice this time as it was high in a tree and my telephoto was maxed out. LOL I am still learning framing and sometimes I forget to change my f’s for DOF. This time I tried to get it right. hehe…
