For you Artie...

[Kiran Poonacha]

Feels Great to be back. My real estate job has been keeping me on my toes and I had to break off for a while.

Restarting my posts here at BPN with an image of the Coppersmith Barbet from Bangalore, India and This is for Artie... Keep inspiring us Guru.

Hope to learn more from you all.

Spec: 1/250, F 9, ISO 1600, +2/3 using Canon 1Dmk4 + 500mm.

Regards,

Kiran.

Wow, that is quite a stunning bird. Glad to see you back, Kirin. You've captured this guy in amazing detail, and I love the pose. Spectacular just as posted, and I could see an alternate version just a little looser in the frame.

What a killer look at this beautiful and unique bird. Great looking techs and detail. Perfect pose and HA and I love the whiskers. The comp is perfect to showcase the great detail. Well done

Brilliant capture. Excellent detail on one colorful bird. Very nice body and head turn.

Great to see you back, colorful bird, like the whiskers, colors.

I would also like a sliver more room, esp above, but just a matter of taste.

Cheers

A little tight in the frame and a bit of posterization in the BG, but otherwise gorgeous! Good to see you posting your images again Kiran!

Wonderful image Kiran. Super sharp image of an awesome bird. If it was mine I would give the bird a bit more space. TFS
