I Iike bird`s colors and the clean BG!

[Sabyasachi Patra]

Looks nice. I love the composition. I would have loved some more dof

[Robert Amoruso]

I like the composition, especially how the crown goes diagonally up towards to top left corner. I might brighten it just a bit.

Hi Patric Sure is a fun place to photograph !!!

I was there Saturday afternoon and they up on a show Displaying right in front of my group for about five minutes or more

I like the head angle and crop Direct eye contact is very good Also lined up well for a pleasing bg Agree on increasing the dof for the head feathers At this close distance It is difficult to get them all within it !!! I like it a lot !!!

....................btw if you send me your last name I can do the profile update We are trying to have all members with full names or at least two initials and a last name Thanks


Will be flying your bird over to the other bird gallery I know they roam free but they are domestic !!!

[Jeff Nadler]

I like the complimentary colors and crop dimensions alot.

[Jim Poor]

Nice colors and BG. I wish the tip of the bill were a bit sharper.

Patrick
The colors are absolutely stunning. Good job getting a complimentary BG at Crandon and a nice composition. The only thing that I would suggest would be for a little more DOF. Closeup portraits need a lot more DOF because they are........closeup. Well done.

I'm sending you my info Alfred.
Thanks for feedback guys !! It was a very slow sunday there and I didn't arrive there till 4 pm :-(

I took a look at the Raw file of this image at 100% and the feather on the head are actually very sharp.
it's the very end of the bill that's a liitle soft, very small softness, but it's there.

Well done Patrick,
I like the close up pose...:cool:
