It's kind of cool seeing the male coming in and the female in the cavity. I like the outstretched tail and wings and the fact that they aren't in focus doesn't bother me b/c the female is tack sharp. I only wish the tail feather weren't intersecting with the female's face.
It is a different point of view, had the female been not shaded it would work better.
There is a weird processing line on the trunk above the bird, I might repost.
Do you upload using BPN, because on my IPAD, your photo is cut off which is somehow occurring to photo's uploaded off site.
I looked at my desktop to see the full image.

Agee with you Marina. Dan, it is not from processing, it is another oof palm. :)
It is nice to see a different point of view. Agree with above points. I suppose a step to the right would have helped on both accounts, although that's awfully hard to predict beforehand.
Hi Troy, well done for capturing something different from the norm, and I do like the outspread wings. Love the anticipating look from the female, and although exposed well enough, maybe a touch more exposure wont harm.
