Flicker - New Mexico

From a blind. The image fills the frame, no cropping. I will probably add a bit of canvas to the top.

What a great capture David. :) Love the pose and while I wish the BG were one color (greenish in this instance) I don't really mind. HA is a little off I think; only just and I really don't mind at all, but others may mention it too. I'd be tempted to burn the bright parts of the perch in a little.

Nice detailed image! I would add a little canvas to the top and right side. Well done.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I like the details and eye contact. Another vote for more room at the top and right and I wish the head were angled a bit more toward you.

[Marina Scarr]

The details you have here are amazing. The HA doesn't bother me but I would like to see more room top and right.

[Harshad Barve]

Agreed with above comments on space , HA do not bother me much , beautiful bird and awesome details

David, good sharp detail and colours, and I agree toning down the perch will work.

[James Salywoda]
