They're beautiful tanagers, aren't they. I think I'd struggle getting the exposure right for them... you've done a great job.

A super picture - many thanks Stanley.

Another stunning Tanager and an equally beautiful capture of it Stanley. I love the colors in this one.

A most pleasant image ... I guess it must be technically difficult, given the dappling lighting in the forest

Excellent shot! Not at all like his blushing bride in terms of plumage, although those silvery-blue bills do bear a family resemblance.
