Re: striated thornbill. Great stuff Mikey!!! Nice clean shot of this species. The pose and the beak slightly open add even more to the image. Maybe a tiny bit less contrast or sharpening but others may disagree

Re: striated thornbill. Love the pose, love the subject! Brilliant shot. On my work monitor, the image looked very oversharpened, but it is quite good here on my home monitor. Well done mate!

Re: striated thornbill. Very good capture Mikey. Clean. Maybe a touch too oversharpened though.
