excellent details of the plumage, TFS

Hi Joy,
Composition-wise excellent, very spectaculr photo. The kingfisher isn't so sharp as on your other images I commented recently (probably you overcropped the original photo as some pixelation are detectable on the plumage, too), but colors are natural, and as told, compo / crop is gorgeous.
Kind regards, László
