I saw this most lovely brilliantly yellow and orange tree, so I pulled up underneath it with my car...aimed with my camera...and suddenly realized there was a bird tucked under all the branches...wow, it sure brought me a smile...I never get to take pics of birds...and this time I actually did! So here it is, and I added the border because I really just wanted him to be totally elegant!...Enjoy!

the bird in the tree is such a terrific catch. the fact that the leaves are "see thru" lets the light in to show the bird. very nice photo. jen

A beautiful capture Verena ... I love how the sun is filtering through the autumn leaves. It just brings warmth to the whole scene. I can also imagine this bird singing happily. Very nicely done.

Wonderfull shot. I love the golden light and the bird gives something specific to focus on. The framing is a good idea here I think.

I am glad some one is getting 'classic' autumn weather. Simply rain here :( .. everything is emptying into ... brown.

This is an amazing shot. What luck that the brid was there, it really makes the photo. I love the way everything looks like it has a yellow tone to it. Even the bird and the branch. Gorgeous contrast and composition!! Excellent work 10/10

This was indeed your lucky day Verena. Beautiful Fall colors in the leaves and the bird seems to match them perfectly. Beautiful framing also with this.

Verena this is a real keeper. Love the capture of the bird under the canopy of the tree and the great color. Although he's in the shadows, the detail is perfectly clear. Very unique and beautifully presented. anne :-)
