    Beautiful subject, wonderful background. The one flower protruding from the top of the subjects head does appear distracting to me.

    I assume set up?

    It looks just too darned good to my eyes at least to be a "natural image". I could be totally wrong and my guess is not many will agree with me :)

    Lovely image in every way. The colors work beautifully together. Love the way the vine curves. Like the way the bird is clutching a flower. In a perfect world may have preferred no flower behind the bird's head but works well regardless.

    Glenn, as usual, outstanding!!

    Landing one foot on a flower shows his lightness.

    This is a nice looking bird, the only nit I have is the flower protuding above the head.

    I like the way the flower stem leads my eye to the bird. I also like the BG. I agree with the others re. the flower above its head. All in all, a lovely image.

    Beautiful bird, perch, pose and background. Ditto the flower, but very nicely done regardless.
