A nice handsome bird Keith, like the composition too. It's a splendid perch and a great background. A top notch image. :toast:

Nothing much wrong with the perch. Lovely sharpness and background is greater. My only criticism of this is that I don't like the crop. The bird looks to be too big in the frame, not so much all over, but it could really do with some head room. Maybe portrait format would suit better or maybe 3:2 with a bit more on top and to the right.

Cheers,
John

Thanks guys, John when it comes to cropping I'm the worlds worst :biggrin:

Have to agree with John here that a portrait crop would suit the image better.
Love the details and pose though.
