    Excellent as presented, not too much red saturation so the feather detail shows through. Nice perch and love the gradient in the BG.

    Where's my olives????

    This should make a beautiful print. Real fine capture. Great color but not over-stated.

    These bright red birds can sure be tough......you handled this one very well.

    stunning Lou...with an extremely fresh clean look that is not oversaturated.
    The touch of complimentary green in the bg is a bonus enhancement

    Great find and details. I also like the soft light and pose. Maybe a tad more space at the left and NR on the BG. Thanks for sharing!
