Hello Matthieu,
it is a great and colourful bird you shot here. A very clear image and the eye is very interesting. You managed to make your image stands out of the background.

Hallo Matthieu
What a wonderful photo. This Yucatan Jayis a beautiful bird and you have captured it in a perfect pose. The colour of the plumage are just breathtaking and the yellow details of the beak, paws and eye circle are displayed with excellence. The framing and composition are delightful. A delightful image with great natural colours and light. Congratulations and thank you very much for sharing.I enjoyed this one as it is new to me. Enjoy your day.
Kind regards

Hello Matthieu,
Not new for me, but the photo is very good. Great contrasting colours and an excellent pose. I've tried to bring some more details in the feathers in a workshop. I hope you don't mind.
Regards,
Peter
