    Wow, what stunning and unique birds. I like the pairing and the juxtaposition and the two good head angles. An option would be to lose the vegetation below the left hand bird.

    Throwing the rule of thirds out the window works very , very well here. Just love the color and detail in the birds and the environment being included makes this for me. OUTSTANDING!!!!!!

    Monte, Beautiful pair of Red Fronted Macaws. I like the way the branch frames the bird. Their poses and the BG look great! TFS.

    I also just loved the composition They color and quality of this picture is stunning especially for macaw lovers like myself. I love the fact that the branches on the left are also so sharp. It adds so much.
