Hi Ofer

A stunning looking bird on an interesting perch with a good clean background. You can't ask for much more than that. Great detail considering its taken through a 2x convertor. I would have prefered a slight more head turn towards the camera for better eye contact with the viewer.

Cheers

And what a gorgeous bird indeed. A lovely presentation with crisp detail and a very nice clean BG,

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I like the perch, raised tail, eye contact and BG and would try to get more details in the blacks and maybe slightly more head turn toward you.

You have many wonderful bird images but I have to think that the one that I remember most and enjoy seeing is the Superb Fairy Wren. Beautiful colors, interesting perch and a wonderful BG. In a perfect world there would be a little more head turn......but it's close enough for me.

Super comp, and I like the colours on him. The cocked tail adds to the image, but the different perch puts this over the top for me. Well captured.

I do not remember this one -- it is the best I have seen of this bird... fabulous in every way.

[Gerard Satherley]

Wonderful Ofer. I agree with Nevil, best I've seen of this species. Excellent details, pose, background and perch.
