Photographer's Note
I took a few pictures of this particular fellow and his friend at the Berlin Zoo (Zoologischer Garten Berlin). It's a young one, so the colors are not as vivid as they are with older birds.
I enjoy the expression of this one so much that it is one of the photos I use as background pictures for my desktop.
Taken with the lens at a focal length of 202mm, ISO set to 200.

HAHA funny picture this one. Even though it is lacking sharpness, it could be easily resolved with an unsharp mask i sense. Great DOF, putting the focus where it needs to be. Well done.

What an interesting photograph! It immediately caught my eye, good framing and very interesting bird. I have never seen one of these before. I can see why you would use it as desktop background on your computer. Good shot.

Hi Ruben, Good capture. It seems he is wondering what that big wiggly thing on his nose is! You caught a special moment here. Murray.
