Excellent detail and I really like the palette, Allen. Maybe a bit tight in the frame for my taste, but that's easily compensated for with matting.

Wow, nice closeup look at this woodpecker Allen. Really nice color, light and detail.  Touch tight, but not a big issue.

Nice capture.  I like the pose, the perch, and the detail in this image.
