GORGEOUS bird and great perch. Sounds like many birds are available with good light- i hope to make back to UK soon.

Pretty cool perch, and the fresh greenery at right certainly adds a beautiful complementary flair of colour beside that orange of the subject! Too bad the longer pale twig was there, but still not too bad. Just for a smoother finsh I'd probably use a low opacity clone tool to soften the lines in the BG. Very well done and quite appealing!!

Nice habitat, pose and sharpness. I could also see this as a horizontal crop that takes a bit off the bottom of the frame.

Both look to me Jon. Maybe the second has the edge. Not sure. I like a hint o something in a back drop to. Perch unusual and a good one. We have thes not too faraway but are all festooned with coloured rings UUUrggg!!!

Nice capture and overall scene. The detail and exposure look good too. I like the first comp best myself. Well done.

Hi Jon, I like these guys, and you have exposed his colours spot on. Great that he is posed against the smoother BG, and I prefer Jim's comp.

Pretty cool to see how the thread progressed. I really enjoy the last repost in terms of space and background softness. Pretty gnarly perch to capture this beautiful little bird on. Well done.

I had no issue with the initial crop, but man the one in pane #7 rocks!
