Pretty bird, great light, exposure control, perch and BG. I might sharpen the beak a bit more and remove the sharpening halo on head and back. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Simon. I remember a previous image that you post from a very close species and I have to say that the processing of this image is highly improved compared to that. Much, much better tnow, you extracted more information from the blacks, withes and reds :) Well done

Great suggestions from above. Beautiful image and I like the wonderful color and detail as well as a lovely pose and perch. IMO I would like to see a little more canvas on the left. Many thanks for sharing.
Striking colours and details here Simon, I support the comments above. Three very strong colours here and you have managed to maintain detail in all of them. Iike the perch, and composition, I think it would also work with more room to the right.
