Dag Peter,

Zoveel heb ik er niet mijn archief, dat ik dergelijke mooie vogel nog kan vinden na tweejaar.
Zeer mooie positie, hij heeft precies de fotograaf in de gaten.
Mooi portret foto van deze vogel. Bedankt.

Groeten,
John.

Hola Peter

Bello pájaro con colores muy atrativos. A mi no me gusta estos cielos tan nublados, pero reconozco que en esta imagen hace que resalte el ave. Perfecto POV y nitidez.

Hi Peter,
a nice picture to celebrate with.
it's not easy to get the right exposure of pretty dark bird against the sky, you did a decent work here, maybe you should
had open a 1/2 step more for more details in the plumage.
Nevertheless this is a bvery fine work with goos aharpness,
good composition.
Well done.

Hello Peter,
Congratulations on surpassing the 500 point mark. You post a very unusual looking bird, one that I have never seen before.
The colors are very beautiful and they show up well against the all white BG. You managed to get excellent exposure on the bird as he sits patiently in the tree. Great work!!
