Welcome to TN.
Beautiful capture of this colourful chap caught against the blue sky. Good light and details, nice POV.

Une très belle première photo qui réjouira les amateurs d'oiseaux. Couleurs magnifiques et pose très naturelle. La composition est parfaite, avec un fond mettant les couleurs en valeur. Excellente netteté, mais pas mal de bruit sur l'arrière-plan. Je vous joins un workshop qui corrige ce petit problème. Bienvenue sur TN, Henry.

Hi Henry,
Welcome to TN. An excellent composition. perfrct framing and pose by your subject. Vivid color, and sharp detail. Very Nice Work!

Very nice color and sharpness... Great shot!

Good shot! You've captured this Bee Eater very well indeed. The colours pop, and the focus is spot on. Not 100% sure, but I wonder whether the tail could be slightly sharper? Anyway, the composition is excellent - he really stands out from the sky blue nicely. Very well captured :-D

Great shot of this bee eater, Henry. Love the point of view from the back, exposing the different layers of feathers in gorgeous colors. Wonderful composition. Great job on a striking capture. Thank you for sharing and a warm welcome to TN. : )
