Great use of light.

I like the perch and the pose but the colours seem a bit strange (?).

David have to agree with Sandra on this one.

I agree with Sandra as well, the reds need to be reduced quite a lot and a slight increase in green would help to give a better balance. Trouble is that we are not used to sunlight in any form at present.

Thanks for the comments folks.

Your right about the colour, I must have still had my red/cyan glasses on from the 3D session I had been doing.

Here is a re-post.
