A fitting portrait of one of the most beautiful birds that there is. They look double awesome when there is a pair of them, with the red female and green male.

Good sharpness that is not overdone as happens often. I like the plain black background and how it sets off the color. Congratulations on a new personal best.

Doesn't look very wild. Also he has two catchlights in his eye, kinda unnatural. Othr than that the exposure , colors, contrast and focus all seem good.
