It's a cracking image Jeroen :toast:

But there's a bit too much blue floating around in the beak and the highlights on the wet top edge of the perch, but I'm certain you can correct this in PS - mind you that's just my opinion :wink:

Hi Jeroen,

A species I've yet to capture on film. As Alan said, I'd love one of these files kicking around too. Nice image!
