Loving this series. Very colorful, SH and detailed bird against a creamy and colorful BG. Just awesome canvas overall. TFS

Fantastic colors and lighting from here Kevin. Nicely done!

[Colin Driscoll]

So similar to the Glossy Ibis. Lovely shot, very painterly with that wonderful background. Just enough light to give sheen to the feathers.

This is beautiful, I love the composition, low angle colours and the exposure is spot on, a real treat for my eyes!

[Bill Dix]

Wonderful shot. Ditto all the positive comments above. Great pose, colors, BG. Just slight evidence of some weed removal in front of the bird. Well done.

Gorgeous. I love the pink iridescence on the head. Sharp, great light, appealing low angle. If anything, I'd look at the slightly "hazy" area on the necks' darkest area - needs to be burned just a touch.

[John Mack]

Everything is spot on. Love the color on the bird. Nice low angle as well. Like the light.

Hey Kevin, Saw this last week and loved it. For the repost, I cleaned up some of the brighter grass stalks, most with Content-Aware Fill. It is superb. Good eye by Dan on the neck; is that how the original looked?

with love, artie
