    Do you own this bird? In any case I think it is different and a rather unique image and sharp where it counts.nice soft background as well which works nicely.

    Odd question! It was a wild bird. Thanks for your comments.

    Hi Colin ... quite interesting pose and nice feeding behavior captured .

    Personally I think the IQ has suffered from processing .... just my take .

    DPP should deliver finer details , IMHO. Looks like Topaz has used NR ....???!!!

    Hi Colin, Two of my favorite things on one canvas. There is nothing like the creamy color of palm efflorescence and to add such a colorful bird in fantastic pose is over the top for me. Nice and sharp, in fact I'd back off just a tad on sharpening. TFS

    ps
    That eye, that beak and that feather...

    I feel something wrong here Colin, the pixels look as though they were beaten up, looks very much over sharpened??
