Love this birds Loukie

Form your vantage point you sure are getting some sweet bg !!! This is good but like other you posted Don't know if you had the camera in rapid fire but would be interesting what other wing positions you were able to obtain Sure would like to see more of the other wing !!!

I like the direct eye contact in this one. Light and setting are great, too. The bird needs a bit more sharpening.

[Loukie Viljoen]

One always dread the words "over sharpened"so I tread lightly, thanks.

I'm also on the less sharpening bunch :) I LOVE that BG, would also like to see others from the burst so his face is not merging with the wing.
That is one good looking bird!

Incredible setting but I also wish the head were not merging with the "wing pit"
