Lovely portrait with good techs and I like the perch and rich, clean background. Pretty bird too.

Geoffrey, What a beautiful bird who is posing very smartly. You have captured it well. The BG enhances the colors of the bird IMO. Thanks for posting this image.

Great job. The only thing I see is near the tail of the bird, there a is greenish cast on my monitor (or my eyes are messed up). Neat perch and love the species.
