Hi Graham,
I like the details captured throughout on the bird and the exposure looks good. Nice background too. Well done.

Very nice looking image Graham. I like the pose you captured on the Jay with nice feather detail. The BG colours show the bird real well. A lovely POV with nice HA.

Excellent work, Graham. I enjoy looking at new birds - we don't have these 'down under'. Those blue feathers on the wing are simply stunning and nicely rendered here. More generally, the IQ, tones and colours look excellent as is the background. I note this is near full frame. Only thing I would have liked here is a bit more room around the bird but nothing can be done about that - a minor point anyway. Thanks for sharing
