    Beautiful.....technically well done. Nice background, perch has character, color is brilliant and the image sharp as well as composed nicely.

    A species I have never seen. Thanks for sharing

    Yes- as said very nice indeed and I like the subtle bit of stuff in the BG.

    One of my favorite tanager species!
    Lovely pose, light and excellent BG. I only wish the perch was darker. All in all a pretty good image!

    I can't stop looking at those orbital feathers! Spot on, not sure I'd change a thing!
