James, I'm not seeing the image or a link.
nice looking birds with beautiful poses,colors,perch,bg!
Boo, is anyone else having this problem?Originally Posted by denise ippolito
No probs for me. Great image- the perfect field guide shot showing front and rear views. Congrats on the award!
James, I fixed the link. On pbase you have to use the link of the image and add /original.jpg When you edit your first post, you will see which link I used.
Make also sure hotlinking is enabled.
James, (I see it now). I wish the image was a bit larger. It's hard to comment on sharpness and detail at this size, but it looks good and the birds are very colorful. I like the interesting perch. Congratulations on the award!Awesome!!
Very interesting perch and great colors.
Two good head angles and I love the perch. Was this at a feeder set-up? I only wish that the tail of the one bird did not merge with the perch.

This was at a feeder setup and I too wish the other tail did not merge with the perch.
I agree with Denise about the image been too small to comment. But still a great image. Love the perch and BG. The catch light on the eyes seems blue.
lovely birds here James - soft light and colours help a lot.
I agree about the tail but all in all a fitting image for the honours it received - congrats!
Very nice colors and poses. I'd suggest slightly lightening the heads.
Nice two-fer! Agree with Artie about the left subject's tail, but it is nice to see the plummage from top and bottom.
"Wow" to this.. loved the setting and the birds here, congrats..
