Very nice image. The close view provided some OOF parts on the bird but doesn't disturbing.
Love the pose and the sharpness.

Very nice. You were able to capture the bird at the right angle to keep it parallel to the sensor. I like the image very much. TFS

Simon, I like the angled pose, and although the detail is there, I would maybe sharpen him a tad more. Lovely complimentary BG.

Simon, Beautiful fine feather detail and nice clean BG. Very nicely presented. I was on your web-site and I must say I love your Red-capped Robin images!

I like the BG, sharpness, pose, perch and eye contact.
A bit less room on the right and some more on the left would make it even better IMO.

Excellent pose and BG Simon. I wish for better light for that would have instantly shown off the gorgeous eyes this little bushbird has. How did you get it to sit on a clean perch?
