A good image that is full of natural colour and excellent detail. The close crop lets us concentrate on the subject without any distractions. Personally I would have cloned some lighter colour in to the top right. Mitch

Awesome focus and clarity on this you can see so much detail in her feathers. Great richness to the color. Striking composition with the sunflower seed about to drop. Good lighting.

Comment from Capture This


Interesting picture here,...love the details, and clearity the most, but I would have liked to have seen the top of its head more, and a little clearer beak? The rest looks perfect...Thanks

Great capture here of the bird. You did do a great job with the capture. Birds are much smarter than people believe. Good colors and a very interesting face.

Comment from kbp painter


Great portrait of her. the reflection in her eye the little and detail is amazing. so is the texture of her feathers which look like air. The beak and the seed is priceless. I love the green background as it brings out the red/oranges and ambers. Color looks very true to me. Thanks

This is a truly great capture. I wish I could get a picture like this. I guess many others would also. The color of the beak and around his eye is fantastic. Feathers are so clear. Bravo.

Comment from nikonbug


This is a six star rating on the sharpness and detail alone.
In photographing birds I was amazed to notice all birds have eyelashes. Nice background with no distractions at all. The quality of your work is incredible.
