A new bird for me from Brazil Pantanal. So many new species and they are approachable from boat.

Manual Exposure
HH from boat.
Removed a distracting OOF stick above the bird.

Thank you for your comments.

Exposure and details look great. My only concern is that the branch becomes too distracting as it is blown out of focus approaching the left hand side. But, we must work with what we are given. Well done.

Great looking bird and very well captured, Loi. Might suggest toning down or removing the lighter branch intersecting the tail.

Wow, such a beautiful bird, never seen posted before. Great find and image, Loi.

Fantastic looking bird with lovely feather detail and colours. The perch and BG are not the best, but well worth posting, because of the great looking bird. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome looking bird Loi and you did well capturing it in what looks to be like a tough place to shoot. The colors and details look fantastic. Well done
