Awesome Pair With Stunning BG....... TFS.
That is stunning Tom, awesome symmetry, super detail, striking and a complimentary BG. Be very happy if that was mine. Well done!

Great color and tones , very nice processed ..

Beautiful image. I like that they're both sharp, and the nice clean background. Just wondering, how do you identify between males and female bee eaters?
Simply gorgeous. All is said above. Congrats.
Nothing more to add to the above other than another top notch shot of a beautiful subject
Gota love that one. Perfect everything! Not much more I can say about this killer frame.

Just lovely.
Excellent head angle by both birds as they are looking the same direction. Lovely light and feather details.
Hi Tom, love the symmetrical poses from both, and you have exposed and brought out the colours perfectly. You couldnt ask for a better BG either. Perfect perch too.
Thanks Grant. It's hard to see the difference but when they sit together you can see that the yellow on the throat is a bit darker on the maleOriginally Posted by Grant Yang
Thanks everyone for your nice comments, it's appreciated a lot!
Cheers, Tom
Perfect poses, comp, colours. I like that they are both sharp. Having a thin layer of moss on the branch gave it some character.
Great image Tom! I like the poses, perch, IQ, exposure, details and composition.
Exquisite birds, colors, sharpness, image and BKGR. Head angles perfect.
