Glad your'e back on line, we missed you. Beautiful details, nice BG, great eye contact and a thin perch make this a real keeper. Well done Stu

Great pose and background. Details look great. And a species of much interest to me as well. The only critique I have is that I would crop differently. The perch is not parallel to the camera so much of it is out of focus. The bottom part, especially the part with the dried grass sticking out does not add much to the frame for me. Bird seems a bit too high in the frame to me as well. If mine I would crop from the bottom to about where the dried grass intersects the perch and then clone out any remaining parts of that dried grass that may be there. Then I would add some canvas to the top. Personal preference of course.

It is a beautiful capture. Tack focus, detail, a clear eye and perfect bokeh.

Stu not sure which to go for I think the OP as a more natural look as apposed to Isaac's which does look a tad clinical,the bird and the bg look excellent with super feather detail.

Hi Stu, Great shot, amazing detail, I now understand what you mean about the lighting of the eye and pupil, like both edits.

I like somewhere in between the two! I love the upright posture - was the light perch swaying up and down with the bird correcting its balance on it? Great light and BG.
