maybe a little soft on the focus.

beautiful capture, only giggle is the slight camera shake blur.

Hi,

It looks like bee eaters ar having a field day at TN, I like the composition a lot, but the picture is bit soft, why dont you try PP on this!
Good POV

Daniel:
This shot has real potential, but OS lens or not, it is soft enough to suggest some camera shake, and image contrast is low. The effects can be minimised by PP. I've done a workshop with it - I hope you like it.
Regards, Nigel.

Hi Daniel.
Great shot of this bee eater with good details and definition.
Excellent colors and definition, good framing and will be better if it has a bit more of ligh and shapness.
Regards.
