Very good !

Don, Incredible... Unbelievable eye contact and detail. Well Done Gail

Hard to find a weak point here. Great eye contact. Great crop. Larger size shows nice detail. Yellows are well rendered. Contrast and DOF are well done. The crown is a bit soft and I can't help thinking something was cloned out on the shoulder area. Nice shot.

Don I do believe this should be in a field guide!. I thank this picture is that good.

Beautiful image of this lovely bird, well exposed and of very outstanding composition, thank you for sharing it and wishing you all of the best my friend.

Good color and detail.

Great colors, detail lighting, ....DOF..what can I say...simply beautiful in all was. ..you've got all the elements working in perfection! (7/7)

Hi Don, I credit you on the detail you have captured in the eye but where the white meets the yellow under the tail area it becomes to flat also the clone marks down the birds back above the wing/shoulder area, above and below the tail area are to obvious for my liking. There is also a little bit of white left just under the belle directly above the feet.

 

Regards David.

great details very nice colors and capture

No problem Don, still a bit more of a tidy up on your blending and the image would be great!

One question, why did you blur parts of the bird itself?

Regards David.

Thats fair enough Don, thanks for answering.

I sure wish we had birds that colorful in New Zealand.

Thank all of you for you nice comments.Best regards

Im not sure about this image.Looks like it had good details but there was some kind of blurring added to it.Maybe not my cup of tea but not really all the bad either.

No rating from me.
