What a beautiful shot! Great selective focus, lovely rich color palette and wonderful light as well as tight framing to really bring to life the character of this beauty.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Atta girl G~Lu! The challenges shooting through glass, fences, screens..not easy at the zoos.
You have a fine profile pose, superb eye Clarity with nice light reflection, sharp focus and soft DOF. White balance is controlled well on all colors.
Great work behind your lens of a bird most of us will never get to see in person.
Nice work ;)

Great shot! Sharp focus on your subject with the blurred background. You capture great details in the feathers, but Most interesting is the coloration and texture of the beak.

Quite an exotic bird portrait presented here! Your image has a good, central composition, it's well exposed and sharp. Nicely done!

Thank you very much! No, I haven't been to Belize, actually haven't been outside of the USA although I think it would be fun to visit far away places with my cameras :)

This is a wonderful close-up shot of of the bird. You have framed it well. Light and sharpness are very effective in in creating a lovely capture. Good effort!

Wow what an amazing looking bird and you have given us a superb view of the markings and coloring of the beak. The yellow breast is vivid and the focus and dof are excellent. :) Mary

Interesting low vantage point
Capturing superb eye clarity.
Good view of how his bill helped got its name.
Sharply focused facial features and smooth, fluffy plumage textures.
Nice perspective & narrow DOF.

One will see more of these in the zoo then in Belize, Last time we were there we only saw two as they are getting rare even as Belize strives to protect wild life. Nice photo well focused on the eye and good colors, Nice

Thank you very much for the nice review. I wonder if they have more of these guys in Belize zoos than in the wild there.
