    Excellent Fernando !!! Great looking bird, well placed with a bit extra room to the left, great perch and bg. Tech wise would try stopping down a little more, might help out the perch.

    Bird wise should tone down the red just a tad, go to the red channel and reduce a few points. Most cameras will overcook that channel on their own !!!

    Keep looking at the crop and curious to what others might think ... tending toward cropping a little from the bottom, just makes the bird larger in frame and proportion looks good !!! Fine image !!!

    Al has nailed it IMHO - Lovely image, Good HA and pose - nice perch. Agree with AL'S points especiallly on the reds - lots of info in the educational resources forum on REDS/YELLOWS.
    I would crop some from the bottom. Love the BG
    Good show :)

    I'm ok for not cropping the bottom, but I have reservations about the branch going from frame to frame, kind of cutting the image into two that way. Overall, very nice !!

    Hi Fernando,
    You captured a nice little guy...I like the candid pose, you have a good head angle and direct eye contact...I would recommend on cropping 1/4 from the bottom...keep them coming...:):cool:

    Lovely little bird you have there, good HA, nice pose and feather detail, plus a beautiful background. I think a catch light would bring more life to this bird and wish the white stuff on the perch didn't get cut off on the left.

    Hello, I have tried to edit again the photo, in function to the suggested.

    I unsatured the red color in -15 and with selective correction add cyan in 50 to the red, also y cropped bottom,
    I have re-fitted, cutting for below. I believe now that he has remained too many unsatured, but I am not very sure.

    Looks good to me, actually looks real good!

    Like Al said, open up a bit would be better. I might take a little more off the bottom, but that me, its all about feel at this point. Nice picture.
