Hi Filipe, I like the interesting perch and body angle of your little bird. But the head angle bothers me a bit as I can only see a little part of the far eye. The color saturation as much too high.

[Stuart Hill]

Agree with the above comments. For me personally, I find my eyes drawn to the fruit rather than the bird.

regards.
Stu.

Filipe, Having the head square to the back of the camera would have been nice but there are so many great things going on here that I love it!!! The bird is beautiful. The colors go great together. The fruits are amazing. The bird and the fruit are in sharp focus with lots of dof. May we assume that this is a set-up?

[Dan Brown]

I agree with Artie, Sweet. The HA is a bit harsh but man, the colors, (complementary on the color wheel!) sharpness and DOF are super!

I almost passed this one by glad I open it. Let me start with the wonderful composition all the components of the image balance themselves nicely in the frame then you have the nice diagonal line made by the perch and I love the rich and bright colors they pop against the BG creating a stunning image. Very well done. In the future I suggest you use BPN to host the image because without a thumbnail most people on the forum will never open this up and that will be a shame.
