Nice pose with a good catch. A bit tight in the frame and wouldn't mind some more space on the left.

Colourful bird with good detail, as mentioned a tad tight in the frame. Sometimes it's a difficult choice to present 3:2 or 2:3 frame, the latter can leave one side a little tight.

Impressive looking bird. Nice looking back pose and the fish is a great bonus.

Thanks people for all the kind words and feedback too. Agreed it is a little tight. Photo was shot in vertical format and as such I did not have much room to play with.
