Beautiful, David. Some might quibble about a color cast in this one, but the colors feel perfect for the deep canopy to me. The noise reduction worked very well and there’s no sign of oversharpening in the bird, yet it has plenty of detail. A very nice image.

Cool bird David. I love the colors. Nice perch too.

Looks good to me: a beautiful bird in a lush, tropical setting. The colors in the bird don’t look over saturated.

Lighting and color temperature look good to my eyes. I like the tendril hanging down from the branch which gives the shot some balance with the bird’s tail on the left. There’s a bright spot in the upper RH corner that seems to pull my eye and this is an easy fix if you feel it as being necessary. Overall, a very nice look at this motmot…Jim

There’s really nothing more to say except “Frame It” . Great shot all around. Thanks
