Congratulations to ssahoo82 for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 15 votes - View Previous Winners


The holy grail of bird photographers is here, in costa rica! Resplendence, elegance and much sheen, all combined into one flying pixie, the resplendent quetzal. The green wonder leaves behind a trail of glitter and aww and one cannot help but feel like experiencing a tale straight out of the fabled childhood chronicles.

that is one impressive looking bird. lovely shot, with the moss covered branch and the bokeh. very nicely done supreet. You should print this one and hang it on your wall. BTW, it seems we are friends with quite a few folks in common.

One of the best quetzal shots I've seen, perfect framing, amazing perch and no sticks in the way!! Congrats on this one.

You've convinced me with this one image to bring my 600II along to CR in April. Unless I purchase the 4002.8II before that...

You've got my vote...

It was a bit of a hike, although i must say that more than the hike the speed at which we had to get to spot from the parking area was exhausting (since the bird was visible on an avocado tree). It was a bit steep as well.
