    Striking bird and good detail but does seem to have a red cast over the whole image.

    Beautiful bird. Image may have been taken during the golden hour, but it does need some color correction. I would apply a little more noise reduction to the background.

    Nice singing pose and yes, in need of a color correction. Simply reducing the SAT might do the trick. Love the perfect head angle.

    The light looks great and the color on the bird as well. Nice singing pose.

    I do like the image but I agree on the colour cast being strong, as well as the noise in the BG. Neat perch!

    Paul , nice bird but way to warm and some NR needed and maybe a 2x3 crop with more room in front also.
