Beautiful shot. I'd clean up the dust spots on the bottom right, bottom left and upper right and this one is a true winner.

Really sweet shot JT! Superb BG and flower! If I had to nit pick it would be to wish for a tad more seperation of the birds.

Just an excellent capture! :)

Nice shot, JT!
I too would like to see some separation of the two birds ...

Sensor dust is the only nit here... terrific to get both in frame and so sharp!

Pretty amazing, JT. I love this.
Ditto on the "dusting required" comments.
