Thanks Robert
That was quick !! I agree, if I could get about more I could get into it too. Would have been nice with more birds maybe.
Cheers

I'm undecided on this, the background has almost got a watercolour painting feel about it. Nice and colourful though and I'm sure a full size version would look nice on a wall some where

well seen

cheers

Nice enviro shot John, however can't decide if there is a bit to much space for my own liking..! However, nice light and use of DOF..

Cracking shot, John, there's nothing not to like about it. You've managed to isolate the bird with shallow DoF while still conveying the environment/landscape. as Colin said, would make a great large print.

I like it a lot too - wouldn't change a thing. Very peaceful image conveying lots of open space.
