Great light and sharpness. Nice pose with good eye contact. Love the perch, although I'd like to see some more of the base; it feels a little clipped as presented.

Natural non-setup perch, Ofer? This would be a good shot even without the bird? loved the composition. the perch and the bird balance each other so well. wondering if it would look better if the greens were to be cooled down a tad. As-is, its quite spectacular as well.

Ofer, this is just top notch. Excellent perch pose light and BG.

[Glenda Simmons]

Great pose, light and crisp presentation. The natural perch and flowers rivals any set-up.

[Leander Khil]

Gorgeous!
I wonder that no one wished more space around bird and perch (esp. top and bottom).
That's the first thing that comes to my mind, after truly admiring the shot!

This is really nice. The bird is nice and sharp and the perch is excellent and very interesting to look at. I wish some of the flowers were a little sharper, but very nice all around. Congrats!

Fantastic Ofer. I like everything about it. These are are such difficult birds to get close to.
