Looks like he was using those branches to scratch his back ;-) Nice detail on him.

Another Tropical Sunset 10

Comment by DavidSharp:
hello just a few comments.

Colour is appealing. Amazing sunsets even when u have seen many.
Is the whole image out of focus ? The edge above the houses/bush not being in focus bothers a little.
A clean image that could have more contrast to punch it up a bit.
The image is scanned with my eye from bottom left to upper right yet the image elements go from right to left. A 180 degrees horizontal flip might be considered.
The sunset might do with some real punching up ( may be more punch in foreground)so it becomes more the clear focus point of the image.
thanks for posting

great lookin' bird waddy .. the owner aint bad either .. !!
thankyou for the pm about budgies .. he's in the other room chirping away right now .. he's getting more and more vocal .. nothing recognizable as talk yet ..
i think he might be coming up to 3 months coz he's getting his first pin feathers .. i think he's a he altho i'm still not sure .. i've seen a very slight blue tinge on his cere .. but only slight ..
when do they usually start talking if they get contact every day and hear the same thing over and over .. ?
i'll check out that site you spoke of too .. :)

Makes a lovely picture with all those layers, and the white egrey is a great point of interest. The heat haze has a glass filter look.
