    Very nice Stuart.
    Good look at those feet too.
    I like the ferning effect in the BG.
    Can you see if you can get a bit more detail out of the blacks of the tail ( although may not be worth it because tail is likely out of the DOF anyway)?

    The Toucans you have been posting have been a pleasure to see. Such wonderful colorful birds. Thank you for sharing, Stuart.

    Very nice! Pose, perch, BG all came together nicely. Perhaps trade an inch off below to add above. I too have been enjoying your toucan posts.

    Such incongruous looking birds. Terrific shot.

    Hi Stuart, a very cool subject, love the overall colours of the subject and that great bill, adding some Midtone to the bill & chest plumage will help bring some more definition and detail out, but selectively done.
