Tout à fait charmant ce petit oiseau ! Et le rendu de la texture duveteuse des plumes et des grains de neige est parfait.

Hoi 360,

Very nice shot and very nice model!
My 2 cents: I would crop a little the picture to have the bird bigger or even make only a portrait and change slightly the levels.

What do you think about?

Ciao

Anna, I like your improvement you made in your first picture. In fact, I already cropped the original picture, because I couldn't get close enough to the bird without it flying away. Obviously I could have cropped even more. I guess adjusting the levels also improves the picture a little bit, however I have no experience with adjusting levels.
Your second cropped image I don't like as much, because there you cut off too much for my taste. I like the fact that you can see the fluffy feathers on its belly, the leg and how the bird was "dancing" over the snow in my pictures, in your second cropped image this part is missing.

s'agit-il de la niverolle des neiges

Je crois que ça c'est "la Niverolle alpine" en français - Montifringilla nivalis en latin. Il est possible que la niverolle des neiges est un autre nom pour ce passereau, mais je ne suis pas un expert ornithologique :-)
