Gorgeous light and clarity. Love the pose and berries. A wonderful moment, though he does look like an angry bird. :biggrin:

A wonderful image, the blue really stands out against that great tannish BG. I also find the berry shadows his chest in the large version quite interesting. Good job! :toast:

Handsome bird on a nice perch, beautiful details and a very nice background.

Sweet One Verdon :cool:
