Needs a little fill flash here to get the colors from the Lory to pop. 6

What a beautiful bird... Excellent color and a good story. Focus is a little soft and the unfortunate overexposure of the sky are the negatives of this image. Still a beautiful shot.

Not too thrilled with the border here. I think it distracts from the bird

Beautiful colors. Actually, he's nicely camoflaged.

such pretty colors...IMO I think that this could stand a little stronger hand on the use of USM...but that is only my opinion

This almost looks like a camouflage effort but the bird is so colorful!!
Nice capture of a priceless expression.

Nice coloured bird. i think ive spotted one in my apple tree as well. Sky is a bit blown out and a darker background would have been nice.

That beauty can steal my apples anytime.

The bird is almost lost in the background colours, though I'm guessing that's the idea of the colour of the feathers :)

Nice shot, and I think you've captured it nicely in its environment. It's just a shame the head area is a little dark, would be good to see some more details there.

Good detail and colours, seems a bit dark/underexposed.

Beautiful color, I wish that the exposure on the face were a bit lighter and that the eyes were a bit sharper.

Colorful bird. He must be taking his share of the apples. :)

The bird blends into the background a little too much, losing the emphasis of the bird as the subject. Bright area in the top left is not great. I do like the border presentation.
