Well, you got it preety darn great! I like the light, the details and sharpness and the BG, the floor looks a bit bussy, maybe less room at the bottom would help and while you are on it if you can, more room all arround wouldn't hurt I think ;), still as it is, is one outstanding shot as these guys are not easy at all. Congratulations!

Great light and details. Another vote for cropping a bit off the bottom.

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Agree about the cropping but excellent capture with outstanding detail . Fine work Glenn.

[Bruce Gove]

I like it as presented. Congrats!!

Nice job Glenn. I just photographed these guys for the first time last week. Busy little birds! I'd crop the light green off the bottom.

[Trey Barron]

Like it as is but might remove just a little off the bottom to see it looked.

[Fabs Forns]

Beautiful bird I've never seen, a little tight on top and left.

[Maxis Gamez]

Gorgeous pose and light. I have to agree with Fab about adding more room. I would also remove the black leaf in front of the bird.

[Linda Robbins]

Nice light and sharp detail. I think the image needs some room all around, except for the bottom. I do like the seaweed, but would crop to eliminate the lighter yellowish part.

[Juan Aragonés]

Another image with the usual quality of your images. I like a lot the expresion of the bird and the fantastic eye contact.

awesome shot Glenn., I am with Linda, ditto.
