Hallo Peter,
"Pragtig" is nie die woord nie. Werklik uitstaande. Die beligting, definisie, samestelling...en dit is 'n "lewendige foto" met aktiwiteit. Die Afrikaanse naam is "Senegal Vleiloerie". Die naverwante en byna identiese "Gewone Vleiloerie" maak dikwels hulle verskyning hier in ons tuin. Welgedaan. Beste wense.

Another great picture from your Senegal trip, Peter.
Not an easy perspective, but you have done a great job of it. The eye of the big bird is in sharp focus and its somewhat belligerant mood has been well captured.

Hello Peter,
Excellent management of the difficult light, allowing good details and a very elocuent contact with the bird's eye. Also the POV is very suitable.

Dear Peter, I need ask you some thing (as you know I'm just entering the world of DSLR and need to learn!) ... I see you do your bird's pictures with a focal lenght of 300mm and VR does not appear in the description of your Nikkor lens... Your doing these photos at 300mm without image stabilization? Do you use tripod then...? I see that your photos have very good clarity MF!, but few days ago I tried to use my little tele at 200mm (andfrom 1/100s to 1/200s) without VR and the birds seemed very very "whipped" in all cases.
Regards
TFS

The gentle angle of he sun highlites just enough to make it come alive. A different and more subdued image from you that has lost nothing!

Hello Peter,
You seem to have still a lot of bird pictures taken during your travels sleeping in your archives. Interesting Cuckoo-bird with a very special and beautiful plumage. Fine presentation, not an easy task to take pictures with this kind of white sky.
Thanks and kind regards

Hello Peter

Excellent photo of the Senegal Coucal,
very fine POV and framing, the tree being
diagonal in the frame and the bird's pose
are adding dynamism to the image,
excellent focus sharpness details, TFS
