    This is one of many color flycatchers of Bolivia, could not do a vertical, the grass was in a retention lagoon with a drain pipe about 3" below the shot and power lines running above. Slight crop on each side.

    1D Mark III
    800 f 5.6 IS w/1.4
    1/400 @ f9
    Manual
    ISO 400

    Comments appreciated.

    Pose and perch look very nice. I would crop it a bit tighter, there is too much negative space top and left for my taste.

    Good comp alternative from Artie. If the details can stand it this is for sure the way to go! I'd also experiment in toning down the cheek/neck areas a bit. Awesome singing pose and perch!
