can't fault this one matt. I love the perch with that red tinge, it really makes this picture.

Crisp, lovely soft light, and a great colourful perch. Have looked at this a few times - I guess I am being ultra picky, but I am just not sure on the composition. I can't put my finger on it. I think it is an 'in between shot' neither dead centre, nor far enough to the LH with the room to look into. Still like it though! :toast:
