Nice, though i think the contrast is a little too high. Also loose the twigs.

Good stuff.
You could chop a bit off the bottom but no big deal.
Give me a ring.

A very nice capture, aren't Kingfishers a challenge for three years I have been trying for a Belted KF who insists on sitting on a thick wire posing. Good luck it will come good I'm sure.

:wink:
