    Great composition, image and capture. I like the up close pose. You have very sharp details, the color rendition is in check. eye contact is dead on. congrats Oscar, a job well done...:cool:

    Hi Oscar - nice one - back of the neck area looked a little dark on my screen - applied some S/H to lighten it up a bit. Sharpened the eye a tad - and did some slective colour on the bill.

    Nice shot.

    :)

    Hi Oscar,
    This is one sweet image and the repost just brings out the colours even more! No birds here either - at least we don't have quite so many intimidating crawly things over here, although I can confirm that Swedish mosquitos are definitely man-eating...!!!
    BTW we saw the sun briefly today - had almost forotten what it looks like...
    Regards,
    Nicki

    nice compo, oscar!! good looking bird. lance's repost does make it pop a little better. i'm thinking that an alligator sitting on the walkway is just begging to be photographed. why not move in close and try to get a reflection in his eyeball!!:D:D what, are you chicken!!:p
