A Late Bonus

I spotted a couple of Osprey cruising the shoreline late this afternoon so I set up the gear which was already in the car.

Well they didn't co-operate and as the light faded the only opportunity I got was this Rainbow lorikeet in heavy shade as the sun gradually faded.

Comments welcome

Bob it is a lovely sharp subject, for me the background is perhaps a little too harsh.

Cheers Rob

I was just wondering of the sharpening was a tiny bit overdone. The look is great- quizzical. Every time I photograph them they end up looking somewhat demonic.
