Hi,
This is one of my favorite bird. The colors are superb. In India we have Indian Roller, a similar one. This african cousin has more vibrant colors. Very good picture.

Hello Liezel,
a fine composition with glorious colour and good perspective, not sure that the border does it any favours though.

Regards
Terry.

Hello Liezel,
This is truely awesome photo. But I looked again and again, and the colors does not seems to be natural. It lookls like that the colors were enhanced to a level which the photo looks more like a painting. I think the post processing should be carefully used.
But again, it is an impressive photo.

Regards,
Shahar.

Really beautiful picture of this so beautiful bird. I got two shots of it, one at the Etosha, the second one at Massai Mara, but for my eyes only: I don't think they're good enough for posting (still thinking about it...)
Best regards
