    Hi Chas,

    Nice to see you around. I do love the interaction and soft light. I love the sharpens on BOTH birds. Excellent capture!

    A fine image - interesting behaviour, great exposure control and use of depth of field with both birds sharp - well done.

    Really beautiful. The BG looks almost like a studio backdrop it's so perfect.
    If forced to pick something to change I'd say the little bit of feather or whatever on the tip of the open bill could be removed.

    It looks like a fine art chalk drawing or a soft painting. As usual you deliver a image worthy of the best of museums. I never tire of your perspective. I have never meet you. But I can always tell your work. Breathtakingly beautiful is all I can think of when I see it. Hats off to you.
