Hello Enrique,
Excellent and artistic post.
Your color, exposure, DOF, detail, and sharpness are very good..
It is customary to also include your shutter speed and F stop with the upload, along with how you took the shot..it's how we help each other here :)

Welcome to TN and Thank You for sharing!

Hi Enrique,
This looks so good that it seems it was taken in a studio and not in the zoo!
I like the composition and the crop you choose. All other technical aspects are perfect.
It is much better than your previous posts.
I join about more technical data of the shot...
Great work and TFS - Shir

Welcome to TN. I think you have done a good job, well composed. You brought out the texture of the feather, very nice.

purely here for intensive photographic technique and use of equipment
as a trek lens shot this could be processed to bring out the pink
you have shown the archetypical bird elements
eye
feather detail
well shot..its graphic but natural
cheers

Excellent shot, Enrique.
Very artistic presentation.
I like the pose, and all the different shades of pink on the plumage.
The details are very crisp, and the exposure is spot on.
TFS. : )

Hi Enrique,
Beautiful shot, there are a few like this on TN and this is up there with the best of them. Beautiful tight crop and fantastic rich colours. Nicely framed, there is a little noise in the background, nothing that NeatImage wouldn't get rid of though. Great work!
Regards,
Adrian
