Just love the emerald eye and the wet look. Nice intimate POV Love the framing as well. TFS

[Paul Burdett]

Very cool image Andreas. Love the composition, low pov and brilliant colours here. Not sure what the blue section is at the base of the neck (part of reflection/sun?) but I like it. The small oval shaped blue bits, and the ones above those bits to the right of the image above your signature are interesting too. Reminds me somewhat of the markings on a Peacock.

[Jonathan Ashton]

One of your best! It's a beauty, crystal clear detail colours look spot on.

[Dorian Anderson]

Yeah, this is really nice, Andreas. Angle, lighting, and detail all look great. You show the brown back feathers really well. It would have been easy to block those. Gotta love that aqua eye! I'd love the have this in my headshot collection.

Thanks folks , glad you like this one .
Your feedback is much appreciated .

@ Paul .... all blueish tones and colors are sky reflections . The cyanish colors are in the plumage naturally when hit by light in the right angle . Did not even recognized the oval shapes .... but they do look nice , thanks for pointing out this little details .

Cheers Andreas
