[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
"Do you see that guy with the big lens? I think he's taking a picture of us".
I guess these birds ( we call them lori's in Holland)had a conversation like this when they saw me.
I observed these extreme colorful birds in birdpark Plantaria. Hope you like it.

Wooow ! What a lovely couple that you have very well captured at the good moment ! Nice composition where the birds stand out of the neutral BG. Colors, exposure, DOF and sharpness are great. I also appreciate the funny note...
Congratulations Zeno and thanks for sharing.

Hi Zeno,
I love these birds! Rainbow Lorikeets are so colorful. A great pose with these two. You have brought out the colors and detail very well. A nice clean OOF backrounds looks excellent.

Hi Zeno!
I thought that the Australians were holding the patent for shooting these birds. Beautiful picture, great pose of both guys, excellent sharpness and exposure. Good contrast against the bright background and no distractions from the subject in the frame help to make it a perfect bird shot. Congratulations,
Mark

Wonderful photo, brilliant composition and POV! TFS - Xplorator Radu

Bonjour,
On dirait presque des jouets.
Scène d'amour ou prise de bec ?
Bonne journée.

Zeno,
I love Lorikeet's!(I have posted one in my gallery) I like the unique pose you have caught these in. The details are sharp and the colors, well....almost ALL lorikeets are beautiful with color.
Nice work, fine presentation here.

Hola Zeno.- Siempre resulta muy agradable ver tus fotos, esta es exekente, los colores de estos Loros son muy bien definidos, y tal parece que estan en una charla. En cuanto a tu foto tiene muy buen nivel de luz y muy nitida tambien. Saludos y Felicidades. Luis52.
