Nice pose and perch, Sandy. To my eye, it appears that the brighter blues went out of gamut on this one-you might want to check them.

Thanks! I’m overdue for a calibration. Toned down.

That’s one brightly colored bird. What a beauty! I like the colors in the repost. Nice perch too with the rows of leaves.

5

What a great bird, Sandy - and a lovely shot of it. The bill area could be sharpened just a little bit, perhaps. I bet you were delighted to get this one.

6

Love all those colors and a nice pose to show them all off. Attractive perch and background.

7

Wow Sandy, another one for the wall. This is such a colorful bird. I see the deeper blue on the repost and it looks great. Either one works good for me, very little difference. Maybe I need to recalibrate my screen as well. Thanks

Hi Sandy
This a great looking Tanager, I just think this is something the sRGB gamut can’t handle.
