I love these type of backlight highlight shots and this one works well. Great light and a good pose from the bird. Maybe crop a bit tighter as I find the perch to be a little dominant here. TFS

I like this kind of silhouette Images. I wish you could have move a bit left or down to avoid the back next to the bird.

Thanks for sharing.

Nicely executed frame, John. Simple but effective with that dominant black and gold. I'd have framed this a little differently with the bird slightly more centred.
