Hello Annick,
What a splendid composition with sharp focus on the impressive Hornbill! I like its pose in the lovely sunlight. Very fine sharp details and beautiful colours that stand out very nicely against the smooth background.
TFS and best wishes, Ulla

Hallo Annick,
Deze zuidelijke lijkt veel op zijn noordelijke neefjes en nichtjes. Deze is namelijk behoorlijk donker van kleur, zoals de noordelijken zijn. Die zijn namelijk helemaal zwart rond het oog en hebben een donker verenkleed.
Erg mooi licht in deze foto wat ook zijn uitwerking heeft in de schitterende achtergrond. Scherpte is erg goed evenals het oogcontact.
Groet,
Peter

A real beauty Annick. I just love the understated color, light, contrast, sharpness. It is perfection in its naturalism and beauty.

Hello Annick,

It is impressive how many color tones you have rendered in bird's plumage. I like very much the way you have used the light as well as the contrast between bird and background.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian

Ciao Annick,
le immagini di questo uccello che hai presentato più volte sono una più bella dell'altra; eccellente composizione con uno stupendo OOF BG e la splendida posa, super la definizione dei dettagli, magnifici i colori e la luce.
TFS.

Merhaba Annick,
Bizim ülkemizde sanırım bu kuşu görme şansımız yok. Bu sevimli kuşu hem teknik hem de estetik olarak oldukça başarılı sunmuşsunuz. Çok dikkat çekici bir gagası ve kuyruğu var. Başarılı bir kuş fotosu olmuş.
Elinize sağlık.

I love it when you post of shot of these Annick, they are my favourite of all the birds you share with us. They have so much character, which you convey so well. As always, techincally excellent. A well chosen POV to get that pretty background.

Superb portrait of a Southern Yellow-billed.
The composition is just right for the pose and POV with the delicate branches framing it nicely. Technically top class.
