Marico Flycatcher

[Tony Whitehead]

Another shot from my recent trip to South Africa. Flowers in spring are not very flamboyant but add a little colour to this image. A slightly smaller aperture to increase DOF would have been better

I really like the composition and the eye contact!

[Ramon M. Casares]

Nice perch, BG and light, eye contact is good, you coulfd just try to tone down the BG a bit. Congratulaitons!

[Simon Bennett]

Good pose and detail.

I like the pastel colours in this, a what a perfect pose. Where in SA did you capture this Tony?
