Preening Reddish

[Mike Poole]

There's a possibility I might get a few days in Floria next year, and the though of it had me revisiting some files from my last trip. I thought this one fit the theme.

Great low angle perspective here Mike, good detail and lovely color. Your composition feels a little tight with the RE also too centered for my personal taste, but that's completely a personal preference. Beautiful preening image, very well done. :-)

I don't often see pictures of Big Red from this low of an angle, and it really works. Nice behavior captured and lovely feather details and BG.

[Satish Ranadive]

Excellent image. Spectacular preening pose, beautiful colors and nice composition.
Like the low shooting angle.

Superb low angle, Mike. Gives a great BG and has the bird looming up in the image. Agree that it feels a little tightly framed my my taste.

[John Robinson]

A little tight I agree but would ggod enough for my cabinet. Nice low angle and BG.
Maybe a teeny bit ccw rotation but no biggie. Well done Mike.

Excellent low angle shooting and nice pose.

[Lorant Voros]

Beautiful extreme low angle that makes the reddish look like a giant. Love the colors and the preening pose. Well done.

[Jim Crosswell]

I like the low angle, details, pose, layers and composition works for me. Excellent image Mike!
