    What a gorgeous bird and an excellent in flight shot with the insect! The techs look great to me. My only wish is for a bit more canvas on the bottom, but I'd take this any day.

    Very nice BIF, another vote for a looser crop, but the head and insect are really good.

    Love the pose and overall color of the bird and background. Nice and sharp and the insect a real bonus.

    Love the sharp plumage, pose and complementary BG colours. Another vote for more space. Great capture.
