Hi Rick


Great framing of the Galah - the foliage is really nice and thr Galah stands out well. Good detail too.

I always think Galahs are much-maligned birds in Australia - and seeing massive flocks of them in the Outback is breathtaking.

Hi Richard. Lovely harmony in terms of colour. The overcast weather has enriched the details of the plumage as there is no glare.Regards. Klaudio.

Hello Richard,
We have tried several times to get a good shot of a Galah but with little success, even though it is quite common, even numerous in some places.
I would have been delighted with a shot like this, especially as it is so sharp and contrast well with the foliage of the bush that it is in.
Thanks for sharing this beauty,
Ivan

Very nicely done Rick. Great cooperative pose by this guy on the Grevillea. The bird and front plant are sharp with great colour while you've nicely muted out the background. His positioning on the bush is great and he's giving you the look. Very nice.

Thanks, John

I love this photo of the Galah. What a brilliant pink fellow he is, Rick. We mostly see the rainbow Lorikeets flying wild in NZ, but only rarely do these pink beauties fly by.
It's a super composition, well done
