    Default Lewin's Honeyeater

    Another recent one from north Queensland. This is a common honeyeater found in most rainforest areas. Setup near water source.
    Thanks for looking, Greg.

    Exposure and bg look great. Too bad, I wish you would have spend a bit more time removing the branch below the bird as well as some on the left of the frame. Overall, it feels like too much going on and crowding the bird.

    Hi Greg, your subjects seem to pose in the perfect place, as this, framed between the foliage. Once again, good use of fill flash, its very subtle, and I do like the overall DOF and sharpness.

    I would not agree with Troy as it looks very natural as presented. Nice light, pose and bird.

    The setup is really good. The leaves and branches nicely frame the bird, leading your eyes right to the focal point of this great composition, Greg.
    I almost forgot to say; the bird is a real beauty!!!

    I like the setup too, only the large leaf close to the foot would have been better not there but the rest is rather quite pleasing. Nice high ISO performance by that camera!
