    Lovely image Stuart! If only the right hand side was more like the left hand side :). Cute little guys

    Fantastic composition and interaction captured there. Superb detail, but I'm not sure if the saturation could do with being toned down a little

    Really a lovely family portrait, Stuart. The birds really pop against the green vegetation here. By now I think you know how I feel about removing objects from a frame. However, I'd make an exception in this case on the stick above the adults.

    A beautiful shot; wonderful light and nice family portrait. I don't mind the vegetation on the right, in fact I only wish for a little of it on the left to balance the image. But it's just lovely as posted. The light is gorgeous, even if maybe a tad oversaturated.

    Beautiful shot and excellent details, high impact image, I try not to read other comments before I post, but I do agree with Bill, I like the colours but I think they are oversaturated.

    Wowsa! Image really makes the viewer feel as if we are "peering in" to a special family moment. Beautifully captured. (a bit less saturation on the greens might work well... then again, on fifth look... not sure.) Colors/balance on the birds combined with the environment make this a very striking image.
