Another class image David. The bright red eyes and crossed bills really make this image stand out. Nice los POV and top IQ as usual in your images
No issues from me! Great work

Hi David, lighting looks tough, so well done on the exposure. Perfect timing with the crossed bills, nicely executed. Any more image content below, I just think it could be a tad tight at the bottom????

Sweet, very sweet. Love the heart shape between the necks, the beautiful red eyes, the low shooting angle and all. I wish for a bit more room below if you have it. This one could make a great post card.

Absolutely superb, great work exposure and details spot on. I would be tempted to add a little canvas all round especially the base, they look resplendent but for me a tad large in the frame.

A pleasure to view , TFS Andreas

Thanks so much everyone!! I composed this a bit tighter to concentrate on their heads and the heart shape they created. I wanted it it be very intimate . I do have one that is a bit wider that I will look for and maybe repost later.
Yes Steve the light was a bit harsh and not at the angle I prefer but there was nothing I could do at this location. I think the shapes and action trump the harsh side lighting?
Happy Valentines Day!!

I totally understand why you went tight here, and it works well, showing off that heart anchored by those amazing red eyes. Perfect V-day image, David. Didn't know you were such a romantic?!?!

David:
I agree that the eye, pose, handsome birds, trumps the somewhat harsh light. Very romantic.
I might consider running a luminosity mask on the necks to pull back the whites just a bit, soften them just a bit.
Perfect for a Valentine's day card.!
Cheers

Hi Dave, very well timed to have captured the moment. I really like the overall, IQ, light and exposure, and you certainly nailed the sharpness. This is all about those red eyes, touching beaks, and the shape formed by the moment. Great photography.
