A real riot of colors here. Hard as it is to believe, I find the yellows in the background draw my eye away from the vivid bird. Might consider slight toning down of the luminosity in BG.
Love the colors, but agree with Randy. Try turning down the back ground somewhat - don't go too far. The riot of color is one of the nice things about the image, you just want to make sure the BG doesn't compete with the subject of the image.
This is ablosutelly beautiful image in my opinion. I love combination of birds and flowers and this is one of best Sunbird picture I have ever seen. Congrats!
Great pose and angle of one of the most beautiful sunbirds in the world. Love the perch and the flowers.
I agree that the BG can be a little overwhelming, and the overall feeling (at least on my monitor) might be a little too warm.
I spent many days in SA trying to get one of these and all I got was a wet bird after a downpour - I'm literally green with envy :D
