Hi Ginny. Thanks for your good words. Posted: 01/08/2025 17:55:17
Frans, that's an amazing capture! I'd be thrilled to have such a beautiful image. The interesting foliage in the foreground and the simple background really work together. The foreground definitely adds a lot of interest to the photo, but it doesn't distract from the main subject. Thanks so much for sharing! Posted: 01/08/2025 12:50:56
Hi Barbara. Thanks for your kind comments. I applied a bit of mesmerizing effects in PS. Posted: 01/08/2025 18:03:21
Hi Frans! Thanks a bunch for sharing the use of mesmerizing effect in PS. I had to check out some online videos to learn how to do it. You're a real pro! Thanks again for sharing your skills. Posted: 01/08/2025 23:20:06

This picture is amazing. I love everything about it. The birds are sharp, the eyes are clear and the background is perfect. Posted: 01/09/2025 19:41:04

I think this is a great capture and the postprocessing spot on. I might crop some from the bottom. Posted: 01/10/2025 04:06:25
Wonderful capture Frans. I have never seen this bird in my travels. Really great sense of motion with your capture speed. Nice and colorful with a great background. Posted: 01/20/2025 17:25:24
