    I love the simplicity of this one. Beautiful colors standing out against grey bg; great comp; sharp focus on eye and head; perfect turn of the head. Nicely done.

    nice pose, exposure and details. I think this might work better in a vert.

    Love the exposure and detail of this magnificent kingfisher, and the textured, twisted perch also works well here. I think the horizonatal format that you have chosen makes for a great composition with the kingfisher staring into the space on left. I like it a lot!

    Nice image, beautiful colors and detail. I agree a vertical might work better in this case. Thank you for sharing.

    It is a lovely shot great colours and good pose. Iam being hypercritical here but a tad more DOF would have been ideal.
