Chaffinch DSC_9923

Chaffinch / fringilla coelebs. Suffolk. 17/04/16.

 

A group of Chaffinch were feeding in an area of dappled evening sunlight at the edge of a wood. I got down on the ground to their level and aimed to isolate individuals for image making.

It was no easy task as they were constantly shuffling about or half obscured by vegetation....fun to try though!

 

This image goes some way towards what I was hoping to achieve. Plenty of 'mush' in the foreground and background gives it a kind of painterly feel. Best viewed large.
