Hi Colin, I like your image. I think the bird looks great, nice work. The background could be smoother but difficult in a natural setting. Thank...

Hi James, beautiful bird, nicely shown. Dorian's comment noted on the clump of lichen. Colors, exposure and detail look spot on to me. Thank you...

Hi Dorian, you remember well, I did post similar frames a while back. I found this that I had not processed so worked it up. When this close I...

Hey Dorian, that lovely Ft. Desoto light. I like the image, no nits from me. I think the bubble adds interest to the image. Thank you for sharing....

Thank you for your thoughts. Not sure if there was any way it could have been depressed. This water feature was elevated and required a small ...

And that's why many of us are willing to pay for the 600! Killer image, looks great at ISO 4000. Only issue is the big clump of stuff to the right,...

I'm on the fence about these BGs. They're really pretty, but they're clearly not natural as nothing is going to yield that uniform purple....

This is an opportunity I would have let go; there is just too much other stuff in the frame to get a decent shot.

This is fantastic. Love the splayed tail and feather detail across the bird. Pose is dynamic, and the look on his face is intense. I'd be stoked to...

This is very nice. I think you posted two similar frames a few weeks back. Lovely detail and exposure. I would have gone to ISO 640 and dropped to...

Yeah, that BG is great! Love the eye contact and lighting. I'd like the far wing to be a bit higher, but the pose is passable as is. I agree with the...

This is one of your best images, Colin. The subject is interesting and he gave you perfect eye contact. I could see a slightly wider crop, but it's...

Green on Green on Green.I really like this.You have some special effects with the gnarled old feet on the gnarled old branch. You might be able to...

Nice work on the last repost! Easily the best composition of the three. Well done on retouching it.

Super cute shot, I like the colour of the fur. Details very good......only thing is...I miss the tail.

Nicely framed, I would suggest reducing contrast a little, the daks look very dark and some lights perhaps a little bright, both these features are...

The details and colours look ideal, perch and background looks good, pose not bad either! Nice shot well done.

Great detail in a beautiful bird. With this kind of detail, can see where its name came from. Maybe a little too big in frame.

Great pix from 2022. Nice to see them all again. The Swainson's is miraculous.

Good pose of a difficult bird to frame. Would have been better if the full eye was showing.

Lovely light and BG, nice to get a rarity. The droplets add context.

Hello Andreas, I like it. And I understand why you decided to go vertical, I probably would have done the same, just to get a more 'intimate'...

That's a beauty! Love the light, pose and background.

Good exposure and colours, the eye appears to be sharp. The dynamic pose is very appealing.
