NZ Kea, it's naughty bird. I took this photo at the summit of Avalanche Peak Track, Arthur's Pass National Park.

Is this real? I ask because it looks a little odd, the shadows and wind. The mountains and clouds are lit from the left and the bird is lit from the right. I want to be wrong...

If it is real very well done, great shot. If you have used some PP I'd like to know!

Another great shot Che. This fellow's claws look well suited to hanging on for dear life. My only question: What on earth were you hanging on to? TSF

Hi Che, I aggree with what Paul says. If this is real, it's a great capture. Very well done

Fantastic shot!! I also photographed a Kea HERE, but that was in a parkinglot. The place where you captured your Kea is so much better. Really well done!! Like PDP says: it looks surreal!!

Great shot, he's on top of the world.
Well done.
TFS.

I like blue sky. I like this photo.

The composition is fantastic. the focus is a little soft on the Kea, but this is just a stunning shot, well done. I think I would have cropped some of the sky out of the top and some of the mountain on the right to move the bird slightly off-centre.

Simply amazing, magazine cover shot! Love this specie!
