Beautiful shot. Love the composition, great background, and fabulous pose. Does'nt get any better than this. Well done.
Very nice indeed!! Beautiful light, colours and techs. If anything would clone out the diagonal oof reed on the left near the neck.

Great pose, light and exposure.
Gorgeous colours and pose !!
One fine image. I would like a bit more room around the bird , but that is just a matter of taste. The clone of the reed would make it even better.
This is awesome Troy. Perfect shooting angle and head position for the preening pose. That texture in the Bg is just incredible. Excellent sharpness and exposure. If you dont have anything distracting there, more room on top will certainly make it better. If mine, I'd remove one catchlight.
Fabulous image, Troy. Lovely colors, light and pose. The low angle is killer.
You have learned your preening head angle very well. I am pretty sure that this bird is about 14 months old....
