    What a stunning bird, Stuart, and the colors are so vivid! Great perch. I would like this even better if it were cropped just a little looser.

    Excellent image of beautiful bird with wonderful colours.
    Nice composition, however I would like to see this beauty in horizontal composition.

    My first reaction was composition, I am guessing it was cropped this way because the perch was less than ideal. I think the bird has been wonderfully caught, I think I would lift the darkest plumage a little bit.

    Love the way the epyphytes are shown on the perch on this one. Presume thats why the vertical crop ?

    Your bird looks excellent, smashing colours and pin sharp, I would also like to see a horizontal composition and a bit more space around the bird, after saying that I would love to have it just as it is.

    I like the pose, details and colorful subject. Its easy to blow the blue cap on these guys. Composition wise I would of went horizontal. Nice image Stuart.
