Hi Beverley!

Hmm, nice hairstyle, but it seems to me as if it is not finished yet, the most important is still missing: where's the fluorescent green, red and orange colouration?

:-)

I thought that a little joke for your (magnificient) 100th posting could be appropriate!

Kind regards and congratulations!

Hi Beverley,
Excellent portrait of this emu.I liked details and expression on face a lot.May be framing is a little tight and would be better if all upper part of hairs were seen.Nevertheless great work!Thanks for posting..

Hello Bev
First of all many congratulations And thanks for all of your postings..
You always post something different (lets call it diversifying shall we!!)
So in sum Many congrats on your 100th..
Now lets get down to this aptly titled gem...Its a fantastic portrait and the details are just about as sharp as a pro would capture..The eye focus is just spot on as being the central point of the image...My only gripe would if I am bold enough to make one is the top of the hair is missing...But that as always is just my opinion....
This is one for my favourites without a doubt...Its a classic.
My best Regards and wishes and I look forward to your next post..counting up to 200!!
