When I was working with the kingfishers last year some of the most effective shots (to me anyway) were when I utilised the dark undergrowth of the bank opposite to create an almost black background, making the subject really stand out. With my new garden feeder site I have the chance to do the same again, but this time with the tits and finches.

I think it really suits them and highlights just how beautiful they are. And I've decided that bramble makes for one of my favourite perches, although I think I want it a bit more curved. I'll put that right tomorrow - as my bloodied hands will no doubt testify!
I completely agree, it's a perfect background.
