Nice collage. The clarity is great. The angle of all the shots of this bird is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

This bird presents itself favorably. The Kingfisher shows us its beauty in different position so that we can admire its entire body and colors of its plumage. All your photos are well focused and exposed. I appreciate the realism of light and color. The photos are well placed within the frame. The symmetry of the arrangement pleases the equilibrium of the viewers. The mixed media is well composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

A great looking bird and a beautiful collage. I hear them around my place and sometimes see them in the willows along the water but they are very skittish and I can never get within 25 yards of them.

    Thanks a million for your complementary review on this Kingfisher collage. I'm lucky to be able to see this bird at least 3 times a week. Some days it will perch out in the open making it easy to take pictures other times it will hind in among the foliage & branches.

Very nice arrangement of the five different images showing the kingfisher in the foliage along the Dodder River, this bird is so beautiful and your images show how it stands out so well because of the gorgeous colors!
You do such a wonderful job at arranging and presenting your images in a collage. Well presented with nice white lettering .

a beautiful bird with the most beautiful colors that I've often seen in Botswana; some colors have a nice metalic shine; once again, I don't see the need to post five pics, severely decreasing the size of the bird;

    Fred,
    Merci beaucoup for taking the time to review this collage of Kingfisher pictures following it's actions along the river bank yesterday. If I'd been able to get a picture minus crossing branches I could have zoomed in to get a good picture on it's own . Here the pictures were only good enough to pass in a collage . C'est la vie!

You have a tallent in creating interesting collages that gives a surround view and different angles to enjoy and tell a story.
This is nicely thought out. Sometimes I feel the darkness is a big strong but this is not the photos more the squares between. I work dark against light and if you look at the middle photo the green grass is light. This might help the darker images to pop more if used in the plain squares. Just a thought. The collage as it is is fine and good creative planning to achieve such an interesting result.

    Thanks a million for your complementary review on this Kingfisher Collage. The central picture shows the Kingfisher as a tiny flash of Turquoise that is reflected on the river along with the trees growing on the river bank.
