    Wow, the details are amazing, Enrique. Love the colors of the bird too.
    Is the tip of the beak is green or it has a color cast?

    I agree with Karl - the details are amazing. Wonderful capture of this often-elusive species. My only nit is that I find myself wanting to see either the whole bird or a bit less of him. I don't know how large a crop this is, but if it would hold up, I'm wondering what it might look like cropping right and bottom to eliminate the oof vegetation.

    I like the sharpness, details, eye clarity and BG. I agree with Bill's remarks regarding the composition. Very well done Enrique.

    Superb detail and colours, Enrique - such an attractive image!

    Great background too, in terms of composition I tend to agree with comments above - a tighter crop to eliminate the vegetation would greatly benefit this frame.

    Great IQ, love your subtle PP work

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea
