2 commentsvery nice composition and contrast between the red of the bird and the green of the leaves.
I like the red & green color combination and the headturn the Ibis gave you. This had to be challenging as far as dof goes, the head looks sharp, the neck not so much but the leaf behind the neck looks sharper than the neck. Hard to tell though at only 637 pixels on the long side.
I didn't realize the Scarlet Ibis had such dark blue eyes until now, very interesting.
