[Axel Hildebrandt]

Great interaction and BG. How much did you crop this? I adjusted the midtone slider to 0.90 which looks better on my monitor.

[Zoltan Gyori]

Thank you Axel! My monitor is not a perfect one... It is about 70% of the original image, I cut some space from bottom and left side for the composition.

[Fabs Forns]

Great action and lovely colors. I'd sharpen them some more.

[Stu Bowie]

Great interaction, and love the aggressive posture of the BE on the right. I like the colours in the BG. Pity you cut the wing

[Ákos Lumnitzer]

Congratulations Zoli. You got some great action here and like the more punchy repost from Axel. This to me beats any bird on a stick hands down! :)

[Arthur Morris]

Love the colors, love the action, like the crop; excellent repost by Super-Mod.

[Tony Whitehead]

Superb interaction, plumage colours and BG work very well together.

[Dave Barnes]

Action well captured. I love the interaction. Super colour and comp.
Did you desaturate the BG. (not a nit just interested).

[Zoltan Gyori]

Thanks for the kind words! Dave, I didn't desaturate the BG.

[Juan Aragonés]

Love everything on this one Zoltan, excellent action series with those bee-eaters!
