    This is beautiful for me Andreas. One of the strongest from you IMO :-)

    Wonderfully processed, rich in color and detail and I love the tones here. Nice head angle and the food in mouth too!??

    Great job at ISO 5000, has just the right bit of grain. My only preference is just a touch more on top right if you had it, but hard to nit pick.

    Well done sir!!

    I like this one a lot too. The vivid colors. They yellow flowers matching the beak tip. And the detail... he must have been right up on you. I'd like a touch less on the bottom and a touch more on the top - but that's probably just me. Good one.

    Absolutely love this one Andreas! Those yellow flowers really send this one over the top for me. Very nice job with the processing as well (as usual).
