    Wow, I love this one. Excellent flash work, gorget reflection, BG, just about everything. Just wish he would have chosen a perch that was easier to get in focus with f/5.6.

    Wonderful shot. Great colors and beautiful soft light. Background is perfect.
    Perfect sharpness. I like the intensity of the colors on the bird's head.

    Gorgeous Glenn! A bit more dof for the perch would have been nice but this is still awesome.

    Glen, big congrats. Awesome capture. loved the shallow DOF here. Soo sharp. WOW.

    Only suggestion is to have more room on top and a little less below.
