    Another of my New Holland Honey Eater friend.

    Wish I didn't have to include so much of the OOF area of the perch - but was reluctant to cut the tail off on the lower LHS.

    Cropped and sharpened.
    Comments welcome and appreciated.

    P.S. working from backup computer while I install water cooling in my main rig - hoping colour and everything is OK.

    I like the comp as presented, don't mind the OOF perch at all. Colors look great on my monitor.

    Beautiful little guy! Love the touch of yellow. Like the inclusion of the tail. You got so many great colorful birds Downunder, mate!

    I really liked this image Lance, especially the bird's toes … looks like he's doing a little tap dance.

    What a great looking bird and BG. Thanks for sharing. I wish I could see the whole tail.
