Kudos to you for getting him eye level. With this POV you pull us into the shot quickly. The colour palette transforms this into photographic art. The eyes are sharp with a slight blur on his nose and whiskers which gives the story of him having a bit of a nosh and that is the exclamation mark that delights us visually. Love this...a lot.

Congrats Chieflong.

Snowshoeing...ahhh you make me homesick for my Canada. Your composition of this little beautiful fragile bird off center makes this photographic artistry. The inclusion of snowy branches in soft bokeh adds further meat to the visual story you present. You have great eye catchment, sharp clear we can see the feathers clearly...you do have slight blow out on white HOWEVER, our eyes see blow outs so why not our cameras, these blow outs add...do not subtracts from this well taken photograph.
