Very nice @elinlaxdal , lots to look at here in the layers. Was this taken while there was smoke in the air from the volcanic activity. the tones in the sky resemble what we get here fro the forest fires.

[Elin Laxdal]

Thanks Robert.  There was eruption ongoing, no wind and what seemed to be two layers of gasses, the white one and the one causing the red hue on top, probably with different chemical properties.

[Patrick]

Superb use of light and composition to capture this stunning robin. The contrast and framing are truly eye-catching. Well done Marty – It has a beautiful painterly atmosphere to it.

Five stars all day long

Wow, Patrick! What a wonderful surprise. This is a great honor & thank you so much for the pick, my friend. 😀 I really appreciate you sharing the  details about how you see my shot. I look forward to trying out your suggestions for strategies to entice birds for more photo ops. 😀

I would like to add this Superb Reflection Frame By Diane

I keep returning to look at the details , textures and the stand out colours i say stand out but not in the saturated sense but the muted pallet i really appeals to me , the whole aesthetic is so good.

Super work Diane
