    A delightful image, Sergey.

    I like the background, the moss and the active pose with both feet visible.

    The red berry completes a great composition.

    Wow, love the color saturation. I can't see any way of improving this image. Top marks, Sergey!

    What a great image, nice big sharp eye, lots of details in the feather, the berry is a big plus. You also got both feet too.

    This is beautiful, I love the natural setting all around, really compliments the wonderful bird. The oof foreground in bottom left corner is a bit distracting, but not sure how you could get around that.

    The eye looks great, I also like the sharpness (1/80, well done), beaitiful berry and BG.
    The perch is very nice but is a little bit overpowering, something with the comp and perch doesn't work for me.

    Brilliant IQ Sergey. The low angle, light, sharpness and colours all work together for an outstanding image. The berry takes it over the top. Congrats.

    Everything about this shot is great. Did you use any EC on the flash? Whatever it was, it was just right.

    No any EC, just a flash. Thanks.

    This is one very, very wonderful shot. Color opposition is rocking the socks off me. The round berry augments the power of the round eye through repitition. The detail is sumptuous. The only problem for me is the OOF stuff up front and OOF tail. Loose that and you have a world beater. A slight crop adjustment maybe too. The fact that the BG has some great texture sets this one way over the top.

    It's beautiful!
