    Hi Stuart, what a beautiful bird, stunning blue color, great detail, love the pose and the contrasting red in its feet. Also being a orchid fan love the little orchids beneath his perch. Great shot !

    Common but beautiful little tropical birds, and you've captured this one in a great singing pose and nice perch.

    Great shot of a beautiful bird. I like the action pose and the bokeh.If it were my shot I might try to remove the leaf at the birds bottom. Its not a big deal at all, it just catches my eye.

    Beautiful shot Stuart, the darkest areas are just a little to dark for me.
    If I was being hypercritical (which I am!) I would say the background is a little too perfect i.e. too uniform and smooth a little faint texture would add I think. Having said that I think it is really a beautiful image.
