[David Roach]

That is sick!!! The pose, the details, the composition, the BG.... All awesome....

[Paul Ricciardi]

Beautiful shot Alan, nice and clean, wonderfully simple background. Subject is perfectly sharp and the pose is dead on.

Very nice, keep up the good work

[Juan Carlos Vindas]

Love the singing pose and killer BG. The yellows seem to be oversat.

[Ilija Dukovski]

Excellent, very powerful pose and image design. Yellows perhaps on the
saturated side, but I like it as it is.

[Juan Carlos Vindas]

Just an option.

[Brian Barcelos]

Very nice Alan. Can't find anything to complain about here. I especially love the open mouth and HA.

[Morkel Erasmus]

super pose, exposure and sharpness Alan! yellows slightly over but not bothersome, sometimes it's good to boost the bird's natural colours.

[Ed Schneider]

Stunning, textbook EAME capture! I might leave a touch more space for the subject to look into, but just a little. Saturation-wise, that's just NIKON for you! Super sharp, and nice timing to not have the nictitating membrane over the eye.

[Kobus Tollig]

Great shot. Well done on the bg pose and comp. Good exposure also.

[Ramon M. Casares]

I like the OP better.
Great pose, colors, BG, perch, comp and detail. Big congratulations!
