This is just fabulous, Ron! Sch beautiful light, perfectly utilized in this rendition. The textures are perfect for the subject, creating a wonderful, painterly mood. This is a "must click" to see all the colorful details. One of your finest, I think.

Amazing job Ron! I rarely venture to "Photo & Digital Art" . I should visit more often. I love the golden glow on the bird and the BG. This image would make a nice large print.

Wow, can't think of enough superlatives for this one - just lovely. perfect textures.
This one should be entered in both NANPA and Boque competitions (and others) if you're interested.
Magical!
