love those soft pastel colours. Bit too central for my taste but hey, that doesn't matter a jot.

Very nice pose with the spread tail, and unusual light rays from the top right corner. Agree with Dave on the central placement.

Lovely pose and sweet detail against such a beautiful background, Frank. Gorgeous colours and light, with the rays from the top right corner just taking the image to the next level! A beauty.
