Nice capture and interesting POV. I'm a little distracted by the grass stems that protrude above the 'mush' and don't think they add to the image in any great depth. Great little bird and plenty of detail where it counts. Nice work.

Hello Ben.

Nice capture and good detail.

Agree with Brett about the grass stems.

Certainly a different PoV.... agree about the grass though, perhaps it could be just a touch warmer and a touch of NR on the bg?

Super shot of this bird. I am not a big fan of the green mush look but here the bright colour of the bird draw my eye away from the green & works well with it.
