Absolutely wonderful Tom. I miss those Aussie birds. Really would like to come back for another round.....
 
Absolutely the best of this bird I've seen posted. The exposure is perfect. Usually, because of the highly reflective nature of the cyne-blue feathers, the head tends to be over exposed. This is jut right. All of the tones are dead on. Great shot. :t: :t: :t: :t: :t: :D :D :D :D :clap: Goes in "MY Faves"
