Virkeligt sjovt udtryk du har fanget her :-) - Det ser helt vanvittigt ud med benene op sammen med hovedet - tak Sune - du kan vælge flere kategorier samtidig - blot ved at holde kontroltasten nede - og den her hører også hjemme i humor.

Skøn fugl... Den ser noget bagvendt ud men rigtig sjov og det klare røde øje er prikken over i-et... Kompositionen, farverne og lyset er også rigtig flotte...
Tak for synet og god weekend... Ina...

Hi Sune
How did you shoot this one??? Wonderful colours and good close-up.

@ regards, Albrecht @

Hi Sune,
Cute little one! It is a really strange "posture": the feet are above it? What a way to attract females! Anyway, the colors are well done, the framing is also interesting, giving just enough of the crib to view. Maybe you could have done some postprocessing to remove the red eye! Hope you understand that I'm joking! :D

You captured excellent shot. Excellent colors and portrait. Very well done.
Cheers Guliz

This is a great photo.
A little remark about cropping: always try to leave more space on that part of the object, towards which it is looking or moving at. Otherwise it looks like it is stuck. Hoever thi one is already confusing - the bird is either upside down or twisted somelike.

Really good picture. Funny and technically perfect.

What an amazing photo! What an acrobat! Beautiful color,a nd wonderful composition. I just love this!

Hi Sune, Very unusual pose for a bird. This is a good composition with good colour and cropping. TFS. Murray.

Hello Sune
Something I have never witnessed with a bird before. Attractive little fella, bright yellow feathers with his deep red eye. Wonderful shot!

Wow, I guess every participant in a gymnastics event is more than jealous regarding the flexibility of this little bird! Great shot! Did you use a tripod for this one?

Excellent capture. Beautiful bird! Love the colors and the expression on its face! :)
