Another bird from The Sunshine Coast in Queensland. I always loved this species, but never managed to get a good picture of it. The tides turned, however, when I found this cooperative male one early morning

Beautiful work here. Love the comp and the pretty little bird. Great raised tail. I may have tried to crop the last blade of grass on the right for greater symmetry.

Best,

Matt

Wow! Super bright, love the setting, and its really balanced. This surely has to make up for the fact you've never been happy with one before....This is superb!
