[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Just a simple zoom shot of this colourful lorikeet. No noise reduction so as to leave details on the feathers rather than smoothing them too much in the past. Just cropped, sharpened and made as mirror image by reversing in photofiltre to get it looking towards the right.

Hi Murray, this is a nice sharp shot of this Lorikeet. Good composition on the dead branch. The bush makes a good backdrop. I think your reversal on the horizontal was a good idea.

Hi Murray,
Nice capture of this lorikeet!
I like the POV and all the beautiful colors on the bird's feathers.
Very interesting the composition made with the long branch and the lorikeet.
Well done and thanks for share it.
My best regards,
JM

i'd increase contrast a bit and sharpen the bird. you might also crop closer to the bird so as to emphasize it. nice colors and good pose by the bird.

Good shot of the Rainbow Lorikeet. I have some pictures of rainbow lorikeets in my gallery, and that's why i think that their colors have been unjustified by the yellow film. I find this picture a little too yellow so i tried a workshop to correct it. Hope you don't mind. Also it is a little soft in focus on the bird itself.

Wonderful lorikeet, Murray! Its colours are really amazing and you´ve caught it all on a nice background! I did a workshop for you to increase a little bit the contrast.

Olá Murray

Uma graciosa foto, boa composição e cores lindas...
Sou fascinada por cores, aqui eu me deixo enlevar por elas.

Abraços,

Hello Murray,
Nice catch! I find the shot a wee too light. Perhaps the glare in OZ? I did a small WS. See what you think. Tfs, Jay

Hi Murray,

A nice image of the Raimbow Lorikeet, the photo has a good composition, sharpness and nice colors. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Murray,
This is a fine bird, great colours!
Nice details in the plumage, and the composition is well done...
He looks a bit irritated to be disturbed though, hehehe!
