    I love the framing, the head angle, the detail and the flowers along the bottom of the frame, but if possible, I think you could do with lowering the intensity of the OOF yellow flowers top right as I find the overpower the bird a little

    I like the natural setting and light, composition and pollen covered upper throat. I could see a version with the flowers Mike mentioned toned down. Well done Tim!

    Love the colors throughout this image here. The composition works well.

    I love the inclusion of the in-focus flowers below. I suppose the oof ones top right are bright, but I like them. Nice and sharp on the HB, with just enough wing blur for me. I could see a version with a touch more canvas top and right, if you have it.

    Color Palette works very well here. Nice Yellows against Greens.
