 Went to Butterfly World in Coconut Creek, FL. Photographed a lot of butterflies along with a few birds. This guy was so cute. Just as I was clicking he/she did this with their tail. I always admire the bird photos people get on this site and the processing they do to bring them out. Hope I did this one justice.

Nice shot, not too fond of the angle though. Good colors

The colour in this photo is just stunning, the DOF and the detail on the bird near perfect. What a difficult photo to take and you have done it well. The angle and position of the bird is a little odd, but given the difficulty of shooting birds I can understand why. I think it is an interesting photo, and it definitely grabs your attention, partially because it is so unique. In this case the odd works for you!
