    Looks fancy. The Pose and light are nice and that green background is great. Nice detail.

    Great detail and lovely colours. I like the way that the bid stands out from the lovely green background. A great looking bird very well captured.

    PMP = pretty much perfect. Some might quibble about a bit of BLUE in some of the WHITEs but not me. Killer bird, framing, and BKGR.
