Kingfisher

A different branch this time,whilst they look great in the sunlight they can look a little over saturated but thats how they are!
Overcast light this time which I think improves things.

Nice one... great colour... only thing for me at least is that I would prefer a bit more room to the top as that is the way she is looking... interesting to see that amount of red on the lower beak, most of our have a patch to the base.....

Hi Craig

Prefer this image to your previous kingfisher post (not that there was anything wrong with it technically of course

). Crafted shot which has a lovely calm feel and quality composition. Top work.

Cheers,
Chris
