Our parrot - she's a colorful bird in both appearance and personality!

Very nice shot! Not only colorful but bang-on focus showing off great texture and contour!

It's a great pic and matches the theme well but the cut-out head and beak give me an uneasy feeling. A slightly wider PoV would be better IMHO.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

Nice and colourful, but I agree with Yakim, either a wider POV, or maybe go more abstract and go for a tighter crop around the eye (with the eye offset from centre), and go abstract.

Best of luck

Mango is gorgeous! I agree with Andy on the cropping/shooting. Great color.

Thanks for all the comments everyone!

Hehe I'll try and do another shot or hundred with her and get more of her head - this one wasn't a crop, it was the full frame on a 100mm macro lens. I'll try playing around with cropping tight to the eye though tonight.

Cheers.
