love this one, everything is one the money except for the perch

[Tom Redd]

Beautiful shot and although the perch isn't great, the photo is. I would love to have this one. Excellent exposure, HA, detail and BG. TFS

[Stu Bowie]

Good attentive pose, and you have exposed the colours nicely. I do like the sharpness too.

[gail bisson]

Absolutely gorgeous. I love the attentive pose and the BG. Agree that the perch isn't Hollywood perfect but I can live with it!

Great colours, comp, BG, techs. The perch is less tha ideal, as already pointed out, and although I'm OK with the bill pointing upwards I wish the head cocked down more. Good stuff Troy!

[Karl Egressy]

Great colours, perfect exposure and nice background, Troy.

[Kaustubh Deshpande]

Troy, terrific colors, sharpness, pose and BG. Good comp. well done.

[Cheryl Arena Molennor]

Great colors and love that eye. Nice bg too

[Nico Steenberg]

Great comp and exposure with a killer bg. Like the eye contact. A super IMG :c3:
