This is very nice. I like the soft light and the bird is a really good size within the frame.
I had one in the tree outside my window for the first time, unfortunately he only stayed for a short while at dawn when the light levels were practically non-existant, good to see though.

It has a haughty look about it which I find very appealing for some reason. BIF very nice indeed. :smile: :wink:

Nicely isolated against the background.

Nice indeed; I wonder what it would look like if you reduced the magenta value slightly?

Narrow dof has created a great foreground and background.
Nicely taken Fieldfare.

Still quite a few about and with varying degrees of plumage difference.
A fine specimen you have captured here Karen.

Nice detail in the feathers, and I like the low pov. I do agree with Phil about reducing the magenta very slightly.
