I can do circus for you

This bird in the Birmingham zoo was actually doing all kinds of

acrobatics while I was shooting, as if posing for me. Even with the

ISO at 400(which I never like) and an f of 2.8, the exposure was

1/10, causing some blur !

 

Your comments are welcome.

Love the pose - fun. Great colours and dof. Might prefer to see the tail but agree that in this case the head holds the interest.

A nice, fun picture.

Hehehehehe....great title. Seems like the bird is trying to look at you from a different way Swapan :).......Beautiful colors and wonderful pose of the Macaw....Best regards, Harry

6/6

... for liking it.

There are 5 people who have rated this picture below average. There are 5 people who have joined yesterday, none of them have any picture in their sites. All of them have rated approximately the same no of pictures-about 300 in one day(yesterday the nos were actually identical) with almost same pictures being rated and same ratings given. All of them have their first or last names abbreviated. As per my monitoring, most of the low ratings came from them !

 

Would you please care to leave a reason for the rating ?

HAHA a acrobatic parrot that is fun. Well caught moment.

Only two types of people can rate this picture below average either they are mad or just Jealous.

pretty colors! I like the blurred out background also, nice work. this is not really a critique, just an observation: the form of the bird is not so discernible here with the tail cropped out and the beak obscured by the frontal view.

..thank you for your comment. I agree with you but I thought that the physical position of the bird was funny enough so that the cut off tail will be less of an offense.I have the full shot but the background was too disturbing !
