Excellent image Leandro, like the pose, bg and sharpness. Light looks even and soft, if anything might want to see a little more of the perch Like it a lot !!!

Lovely image Leandro. What a beautiful little bird.
I can't add anything more to Alfred's comments.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Very good overall. Like Al, I'd like to see more of the perch. To me the image looks like it could stand another round of sharpening to bring out the fine detail. Beautiful BG!

[Dave Leroy]

Beautiful picture.
Very soft feel and you really did justice to the bird's name.
I am looking forward to more.

I'm not a big fan of BOAS, but I have to admit that this is very sweet, with the contrasting BG really setting of the bird, enhorabuena!

Liked how the softness has come out. The eye catches attention very nciely. Beautiful BG. Well done.
