Magnificent picture. I would leave the OF there because you get some depth in it. I think I like that more then completely black.
But that is personally

excellent, can't fault it, in my opinion having a completely black background would be something else though

Hi Major,

Top drawer shot. Personally I like the OoF strip of habitat at the bottom. Exposed superbly and sharp as a tack. Is it the same bird as you posted sitting in the window a few days back?

Regards
