    Wow! Very nice image. I love the colorful birds, poses, perch, and bg. Nice light too.

    Lovely image and colors. I feel the frame is a bit tight, nay be a little bit of room all around. Loi

    lovely color, BG pose and sharp details. in an ideal world the left bird's HA would be a bit more parallel to the back of the camera but it's a great image as is.

    This is really a killer image. The colors are amazing and you have very nice details. I would wish for a little more room on top.

    Superb image with great IQ. I also wish for a bit more room in the top and bottom. Other than that, this is an amazing shot! Congrats.

    Stunning birds and super sharp. On my Mac it looks as if you could lighten it a bit by pulling up the curve as the colors look quite dense....
