The Kiss

[Joe Senzatimore]

Things have been good here in Fl. Great to get away from the cold NY weather. One from Venice yesterday. This pair is just starting to build a nest.

Absolutely super interaction you have captured.Good beginning to start building a nest.
Love the colors,great details,strays of feathers all around,nice expression of both and lovely composition.
Greens in BG adds to the beauty of composition.

Hi Joe - great interaction and plumage. Nice soft light too. Only thing I am unsure of is the comp, I'm not loving the cut off legs. I'm not sure I have another suggestion though other than perhaps a squarer crop. Still a beautiful image and interaction.

TFS,
Rachel

I would have went for a landscape crop. The light here is amazing! Great detail as well and interaction! Well done indeed.

[Jonathan Ashton]

Beautiful shot, love the interaction, I don't know if it was the time of day but the colours look rather yellow to me.

[Nick Palmieri]

Super interaction! I think the color may off a bit as the sky does not look natural...thinking if you used color balance and added a tad of blue it may easily correct it. Easy fix, if you choose, for a great image.

Probably because I'm on the un-calibrated laptop.

Agree about the yellow color, otherwise a stunning interaction . . .

Part of it is probably the laptop , but it is early AM light.

[Karl Egressy]

Great interaction shot with excellent details and light, Joe.

[PhilCook]

OK, so in a perfect world the legs would be included and maybe the left hand bird complete...but nonetheless a great moment captured, loving the golden light and exceptional detail.....I think the birds feathers exploded !

[Robert Holguin]

Excellent shot.
Very nice light and excellent interaction captured.
Very well done.
