Love the color and the mood this images has, the only thing that ditracts me is the overhang above the right wing and without it I think it would be more powerful, sorry Fab but only my opinion.

Really beautiful image but I keep wondering what it would look like with more at the top and less on the bottom? Gosh, the lighting is FAB-ulous, though! :D:D:D

[Ramon M. Casares]

Lovely! Light and colours are terrific, pose is nice, and saturation is great, you DO paint with light my dear friend! Congratulations!

[Linda Robbins]

Love the golden light and habitat.

[Juan Aragonés]

Killer! :eek::eek: I would clone out the white spot in the water at the right of the bird´s tail (it is tiny but very distracting and located almost in the centre of the frame)

[Satie Sharma]

Very dramatic shot, Fabs. I love the color and pose of the bird.
