Excellent shot! The unusual pose, colors, and sharpness really make this special. :toast:

While we love our closeups, I wonder if this crop is a little too tight. Did you try a vertical crop? He seems crowded at the top of the frame, almost like he is bending over to make sure he is in the shot.

Looks more like a parrot pose than a RBW! I love it. A little tight for my tastes, but this is a great pose! Sharon

Wonderful capture Edward. Love the pose. Wonder what it would look like if it were not cropped quite so much.
