Nice pose that shows the iridescence well. Good sharpness. Maybe a slight contrast boost?

Troy, I like the head turn and the sharp details. I never saw a juvenile up close.

[Troy Lim]

Thank you guys. Will try a bit more contrast.

Nice pose, and I like the subtle head turn our way. Perhaps reducing the overall exposure a tad would work too as I find the image just a bit light. I'm bothered a bit by the light wave's dark edge skimming along the bottom of the frame, cropping just 1/8" to rid that very slim black edge works remarkably well to give the comp a cleaner finish.

Daniel, I actually agree with you. I wanted to add more room before but lower frame is bright and shiny, which I thought was a bit distracting...
Can I see your version of the crop?

[Daniel Cadieux]

Hey Troy, simply "crop" at bottom by scrolling with your web browser until the very slim dark band at bottom is hidden (or about halfway through the thickness of the lowest pale band).

Got it thanks.

Troy, liked this one a lot. Very good placement of subject in the frame.

Great shooting angle and the exposure is nailed on a difficult customer.
