Heres a cute little chap with a big name.
This "race" is apparently a little diferent to the one found in Costa Rica, though I had never seen one there in any case
Would make occasional short appearences at the edge of the garden in Chiriqui, Panama and I was lucky to get such a cler shot of this skulker!
40D 100-400 + 1.4 TC
SS 1/60! handheld:w3
Ev 0 ISO 800 f8
pretty much as shot apart froma little NR to BG and sharpening
I also darkened BG in places

First of all nice pastel colored bird and sharp features you got here. VWD
i see a bit tight crop is this full frame ?
at 1/60 you really managed well here.
I might give a chance to reduce power of those two dark spots in bg over the birds back.
Another gorgeous bird, Richard.
Mital covered all the points.
Unless the bg was too distracting, I would have composed this with a bit more room around.
Nice and sharp. Agree with blending in the dark spots.
Did you get one with some more head turn?
:S3:
Hi guys
bit tight yeah could only take from top rest is as shot; probably did need to back off lol
dark spots can go - good point
HA - yes I did looking further AWAY lol (little monkey)
:S3:
So
added canvas all round
removed dark areas!
you guys are hard work lol
Good repost Richard, and you have captured excellent detail, and achieved good sharpness for your ss. In a perfect world, a better perch would have been better. :w3
Repost rocks. What is the bird on? EXP and pose perfect.
:S3:
Hi Artie
Its a rock; you know those cleaned up ones you can get for the garden; pale cut stone dont know type
Thanks Richard. I do not mind it at all.
Loved the colors and details on the bird.
Hi Richard
