Hi Dennis,

Even with the ant you have managed to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.

The birds are once again superb but the very first one of the Pale Headed Rosella
is sublime.

The composition and colour balance are wonderful. It just works perfectly.
For example, the use of depth of field causes the blurred green area immediately to the right of the
parrot to echo the coloured area of his nape and the textures and details of the grevillea echo his own feather textures.

Some of this will be thousands of years of evolution by the parrots ancestors so they blend in, but your eye
has composed it so well. The softness you achieved across the shot is wonderful. Again it echoes the softness of the bird itself.
That takes talent.
