Thanks for viewing and comments ...

Excellent shot! Wonderful opposing colours here, with the bird and BG balancing each other out nicely. Some folks may want the blurry portion of the stem(?) cloned out as well, but it doesn't bug me that much. Sharpness is amazing, well lit with the sun just to your right. Catchlight is the finishing touch. Looking forward to seeing more of your work!

Lovely subject and excellent IQ. Nice pose and the details are really excellent. Usually I just love inclusion of environments in my BG but in this case I am finding the part behind the bird distracting while the rest of the BG is just awesome. I think b/c it's sitting just behind the bird and the rest of the BG is clean, it's a bit more distracting. Not sure, but lovely image overall.

Beautiful....gorgeous color, sharpness and exposure look spot on too. Nicely done!

Firstly , what an amazingly colored bird................nicely done with very nice detail showing through and extra smooth backdrop. Unsure about the blurry leaf material behind the bird, I think it would look nicer if it were removed ,either way a stunning shot of a bird I never knew existed until now

What a cutie!! The issue with the OOF stuff at the bottom, for me, is that it's almost vertical and ends mysteriously behind the bird. I wouldn't mind a more natural shape, but as is, I'd try to get rid of it.

Beautiful image...It is very difficult to reproduce that color unless you have some good soft light..Exposure and details look great..
