This immediately caught my attention not only the blue color which is so beautiful but the closeup macro is spot on for focus. Love the reflection in his eye - good luck in competition. :)

Comment from The Condition Black


Gorgeous shot, these are really pretty birds. I love that color blue.

Great contrast, I like the stark difference between his dark feathers/beak and the lighters feathers/background. Stands out really well, makes for a dynamic piece. Love that up-close, portrait style. I normally have an issue with images being so centered, but considering the portrait style I think that works. And the overall composition isn;t that balanced, so it works. Great flow of imagery; the lines really draw the eye around your work. And nothing leads you out and away from the piece.

You have an excellent photo here, no doubt a wonderful addition to your collection and a very good entree into the contest. Good luck!

This is an incredibly great initial impact image. Nicely composed and good clarity. I like the light reflection in his eye. I love the blue color of the bird. Well done. Good luck in the contest.

This is an amazing photo. Excellent focus and clarity. Unbelievable amount of detail here and the blue is very vivid. Should do very well in the contest. I like the little goatee on the bird!

This is such a great contest entry, wonderful photo. I love this portrait a lot, perfectly focused, gorgeous details presented, seems like a recognizable touch of 70-300 lens:) I love blue in nature, not very often to see and you have presented it excellently. Thanks so much for sharing and best wishes for the contest.
