    Stunning shot - no faults as far as I can see - great spread of the wings. If I'd taken this it would be framed on my wall right now

    Absolutely stunning. Incredible sharpness and IQ. Pose is splendid and so is the over all setting. I'd crop from the left and add canvas to the right and top. Congrats on a top class image!

    lovely pose and details. BG is great, I only wish the perch was in DOF but it is tough at long focal lengths

    well done

    A cracking image, excellent timing with exceptional detail & clarity. This clearly illustrates the quietness of the 5DIII over all other bodies, great work.

    I agree with Arash about the perch, just curious, but was the subject loured down. Look forward to more in the series.

    Hi Miro, did you attract the bird by food, or was this a perch it regularly used and therefore it was through observation you positioned the camera, as I said just curious.

    Great image, irrespective!

    Hi Steve, yes I used this option. I just add this perch in the zone where is the gathering place. Thanks for viewing and comments. Cheers! Miro
