Great detail and a very smooth background to show off the bird, and I love the weathered perch. Nicely captured Rob.

Nice gentle pallette. Love the way the curved branch seems to hold the bird in view. (Bet you planned it that way !! :biggrin: :eek: :eek: )
Cheers

Nice pose & I like the way it seems to match the shape of the perch.

Super DOF and overall comp Rob. I love the look of this bird as I do just about all the species you post. The perch is very unique and adds to the image IMO. Super BG that goes perfectly with this bird. Well done.
