After some time far from photographing / posting, last March I could go for a 7 days trip to Kruger National Park, a place I love to go.

I'll post a few images I could get there. Any comments are appreciated.

Canon 5D Mk III, Canon 500mm f/4
f/8, 1/640, ISO 1250

Cheers
Jefferson

Excellent detail in the bird, Jefferson, and I like the pose and composition.  Nicely done.

Hi Jefferson,

Subtle colors and a nice knotted perch make this a very pleasing image.  Soft lighting has allowed the delicate color of this bird to show up nicely...............................Jim

Very nice color levels, detail, and comp.  The large image is wonderful.  Bird pops well against the BG.

Love the pastel colors in this Jefferson. Great perch and very complimentary background. I'll be waiting to see what else you were able to get on your trip.
