[Alan Murphy]

A fantastic image. If you can re-crop, I would move the lens left a bit.

[dankearl]

What a fantastic bird. A bit of a better angle and this would be over the top.
Still, very well done, for iso3200, the IQ is terrific.
Congrats on a great image and thanks for sharing it!

[Maya Raut]

Terrific image. IQ is really great for ISO 3200.

[arash_hazeghi]

[PhilCook]

What an amazing looking bird !....I see no room for improvement worth mentioning, incredible especially at such high ISO

[Jonathan Ashton]

Wow this is special, amazing detail in the adult and the expectant youngster all adds to the drama, congratulations.

[rajojomanik]

Fantastic capture with amazing details on both parent and junevile.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Excellent. I love this, and the juvie peeking out of the nest hole just gives you bonus points :-) I agree with Alan about the comp though. Well done!

[Gen Benjamin]

So very nice. To get the adult, the baby and the catch so sharp and to have the adult wings in such a great position. Wonderful image

Excellent! I have read that these birds are very fast and you have captured this one nice and sharp!. Love the young waiting for the food.

Terrific image! Excellent execution. The adult is nice and sharp. Food item and the eager juvi take this over the top.
It's been so long since I've seen a Hoopoe.

[Kaustubh Deshpande]

Awesome shot. eye level, crest up, sweet BG and frozen perfectly. loved the view of the juvie head. Agree with Alan on crop.

[Giovanni Frescura]

Hello thanks to all
this isn't a crop but a total image ...so you think could better crop a little on the right side ? But so it isn't too much compressed ?

[Kaustubh Deshpande]

the area behind the parent is not adding a lot...but you dont want to crop too tight. If you take half off of that area, it wouldn't be too tight, I think.

[Giovanni Frescura]

What do you think of the background? is it 'too much green and it would be best use Blur?
Could you give your yips about ?
Thanks

[Giovanni Frescura]

this is the diifferent option
What you hink about ?

[Daniel Cadieux]

The crop is better on the repost (but I would keep the same space top and bottom as in OP), but I prefer the green background.

[Sidharth Kodikal]

I too prefer the crop on the repost, but I prefer the brown bg. How did you change it?

[Giovanni Frescura]
