Wonderful detail in the feathers, and nice rich colors. It seems just a tad dark on my screen.

I love the colors on this bird and in the whole scene, Ken! An excellent shot with sharp details, excellent clarity, a perfect exposure and a classic composition. I wouldn't change a thing.

This is really nice Ken. DOF is perfect, detail in feathers and lighting are superb. Not really necessary, but the only suggestion you might try is a bit more head room?

Hi Ken
This is a really nice soft lighting photograph. The coloring and detail are right on.

Sweet image, Ken. It really shows off the cool plumage pattern on the neck. Excellent detail.

Love this shot Ken. Great light on the bird showing it's plumage well, and the pose is classic. Saw several of these last year on the Chobe but always found them flying away😂 Cool capture, great bird!
