True artist my fiend..you have really overdone it. So much beautiful blue and green. This is over the top. I would pay money to any editor or critiquer to find anything wrong with this image outside of subjectivity in art. It is a masterpiece.

The colors are just glowing and the light beams on the dark background are beatuiful. A really nice portrait! He is a great speciman too, sometimes they have a greyish blue tint so you caught the colors just right!

Super duper sharp and very detailed aswell.
I like the moss on its perch.

Hi Claude
great picture with lovely colours and great sharpness. Imho the corn is a bit disturbing, I would clone it away. Also the bg looks a bit strange (is it a dark roof?)

Hello Claude,
A superb capture of the Blue jay, taken from a fine POV, in an excellent composition and with superb sharpness, colours and contrasting dark BG. Clever use of a mossy log to attract it with a little corn!
Well done and TFS!

Hi Claude, this is a lovely shot of the Blue Jay, I wish we had such a colourful bird here in the UK. A great pov and good pose from the bird. The colours are vivid and well saturated, good focus and sharpness and good catchlight in the eye. Wonderful composition.

Coucou Claude!

Wow! cette photo est une merveille! côté couleurs, il y a tellement de délicates nuances qu'on la croirait peinte, et les détails sont également d'une grande finesse.Je ne sais pas de quoi est fait le BG, mais ces stries grisées sur fond noir donnent l'impression de rais de lumière.C'est subtil et parfait!
Merci

Bonsoir Claude, encore une fois, c'est la plus belle photo de geai bleu que j'ai vue! Je viens juste de dire la même chose à Mario pour son sizerin mais que veux-tu, vous êtes tous les deux des maîtres de la photo d'oiseaux. J'adore la buche où l'oiseau est posé, avec les grains de mais et la mousse. Les couleurs sont tellement justes et belles, l'oeil est clair et net, avec une petite coquinerie dedans. Qu'as-tu fait pour le fond, est-ce que ce sont des rideaux???!!!

Merci!
