Glenn:

Nice composition, background, angle in frame.
I would prefer not to have the perch overlap the bird.

On my monitor, I think the image would present a bit better with the midtones pulled down a bit, give it a bit more bite.

Look forward to more from your trip.

Nice image Glen. Nice comp and bg. I personally like the perch crossing the body, mixes things up a bit. Techs and sharpness look good on my end.

Great use of similar colors on the perch BG and subject. Agree that it could use just a bit more "punch".

Love the coordinated colors Glenn!:cool:
