Hi Phil, you lucky man, getting close to these is no mean feat, congrats on that and know a guy who will be very envious of you. Great looking bird with good detail and the droplets just add something.

Can help but ask if there is just a slight green cast in the image Phil, just opened it in PS and did +5 red & +5-7 blue, just a thought, although it's all subjective in what we see? :wink:
