    Jim:

    She is sharp, well exposed, right in the DOF plane, pleasant BG.


    Well done under those lighting conditions.

    Cheers

    Jim, you have brought out the fine detail in her plumage nicely, and I like the colours on her. Good DOF, and just enough space all round.

    Bird looks great and you did a great job especially considering the low light. Perch is a bit plain.

    Nice pose and composition, excellent detail even at 1/40 sec, and sweet creamy background. Well done.
