I really like the side lighting here! The angle is superb as well. Love the detail and colours!
An overall superb image!
Interesting lighting effext on the bird and background, Nick. Looks good.
Nice one Nick. The lighting effect is pretty cool. BG colors are great. My only little nit would be to remove the bright spot in the lower left corner.
I like the side lighting effect and you got good detail on the shaded areas but some of the yellows look a little hot.
TFS,

Wonderful shot.
I really like the pose, love the side lighting here, great pov, and great comp.
Well done.
Thanks for the comments
Vibrant colors in this and the side lighting is rather nice, I like too the small mound he/she is standing on and low angle is good too, although a little less oof foreground would be a little nicer I personally feel..but splendid image just the same
