Excellent capture! You captured this Kingfisher in it's raw beauty. I love the background and the angle in how you got this photograph. Thank you for sharing! Great work!

Hi Susan. Love the colors of this Kingfisher. His colors come across as blue with a copper chest. He's definitely got his eye on something with that intent stare! The only thing I'd like to see is getting a little closer, in saying that I know how pleased I'd be getting any shot of him! Focus and lighting show him off well. I enjoyed! :o) Nancy

A good looking nature image posted here! Your fine and classical composition gives us an enjoyable view of that pretty bird and its location. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well taken!

Susan, this is a lovely capture of the Kingfisher ready to go after whatever he has his eye on! You have shown his lovely colors and texture of his feathers in a natural background. I'm surprised at how small they are; I always thought they were much larger, more like a heron perhaps.

This is a clear photo with an interesting theme and action. The composition is balanced and details clear. I was not aware of this bird. I enjoyed viewing this. Alex

The kingfisher is well -laced within the frame , it appears to be focused on something, perhaps a little fish.
I love the beautiful colors of this kingfisher, it stands out so very well.
Well composed in its natural surroundings, well presented!

This is a fine shot of the kingfisher about to dive in! The framing, light, shadows, and colours all come together perfectly. Nice effort!
