The sharpness on this is spot on. Very nicely taken. Certainly a contender for the color green contest. Everything about it is wonderful. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and classical composition gives us a good look at that pretty bird and it's location! Sharpness and exposure are good. Well done and good luck!

Comment from Glena Jessee-King
This is indeed a beautiful green parakeet surrounded by greenery and peeping of blue as well as limbs and the large trunk portion sticking up (not as attractive). Yet there are no distractions by limbs or any foliage in front of the lovely bird. Best wishes.

Welcome indeed.

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
I can guess whose pet this one green parrot is! He is always obliging. A finely captured shot of the good old friend. Fine composition, soft colours and very good light makes this first rate.

Thanks a lot Sesha for your great comments and top rating, highly appreciated

Comment from bpellephoto
Fred this has to be the finest of your Parakeet series.

The framing is excellent and is supported by a bird that is in fine focus from top to bottom.

The natural looking tonal greens of this bird is much better seen than in previous shots.

The background bokeh is just soft enough to highlight the bird and still be recognizable as the birds environment.

The foreground is clear and very sharp, nice DOF.

I might have tried to remove the branch that is in line with the long tail feathers.

Otherwise this is a good looking take for sure... Bob
