    Both great shots, wonderful colours, detail and sharpness. The background in the 2nd is excellent and really sets off the bird. I think that, if possible, the first might benefit from not being so central though ne_nau.gif

    I love the second pic. Excellent. The first - I'd say lose the colored border and recrop it. I can't say exactly how without seeing the original, but I think gubbs is right about the "centrality" of it.

    Definitely better. Nice colors, non-disruptive background. Fairly aggressive crop?
