it is certainly hard to make images like this but practice makes perfect, doesn't it? and the result is a fabulous image like this one.. i'm impressed :)
a very detailed shot of a beautiful bird combined with the soft blue background. free as a bird, it is certainly one of the most magnificent feelings..
thank you for sharing this stunning image with us, high marks from me :)
Good shot Philip! I bet you were swinging the lens and shooting
alot to get this one. You have detail in the eye - which is so important
in animal shots. The only small thing I might try is cropping this in
a little tighter keeping the bird up alittle more and to the right as you
have it. Eric eyeyes
