Hello Mario,
The posture and the depth of field are excellent as well as these specific metallic colors.
Technically well done. A good portrait of this European starling.

Hello Mario,
What a pity of the pole in the BG. The Starling is superb. Perfect sharpness and splendid clear colours. POV, DOF and composition are great.

You can surely change the poses in some minute ways as to show the different colours..In this glance one does not see as much of the green...hey..member back when I said it looked like US Army Colours? Still does!:-) Dress Greens they are called..

Hello Mario
This is really a special and handsome looking bird. You have captured it in a most pleasant pose, displaying all its lovely features. The details of the plumage is excellently captured and displayed. Focus and sharpness is splendid, camera work just great! This afternoon I saw a bird posted by one of the fellow members and I thought it is just awesome, now I look at this photo and I think wow this is really awesome. This site is so wonderful and makes one so much aware of all the wonders of nature that one would not normally see, and your photograph is definitely one of those special ones. This is also one of those you appreciate more and more each time you look at it. This one really sticks to me. Thanks for sharing, this very admirable bird.

Hi Mario,

I have always thought the Starlings to be very beautiful. This one in winter plummage is stunning. You captured the metallic colors, the busy patterns of the face, wings and plummage, and the attitude of the bird perfectly. Superb details, background and composition.

Hi Mario

Another outstanding image here from you, my friend!
Beside the overall wonderful shot of this bird, it's the textures that take my mind away here. I especially feel ery much attracted to the small but very contrasting white "V"s from its torso :) What an intimate close-up!
Great job is every way!

Bravo and TFS

I think starlings are so beautifully marked. They look like some jewel encrusted objet d'art. I love it against the neutral background. Lovely work.

Fantastic shot of this beautiful Starling, Mario!
The sharpness and detail is incredible!
Very well composed.
Great DOF.

Well done,
Joe

p.s thankyou for your advice on using flash. I tried it out using the flash with low power and it worked really well! :-)
Trouble is, my 100-400mm is not working very well: it's really soft and I think it needs repairing! :-(

Bonjour Mario,
Voilà un étourneau magnifiquement photographié. C'est un oiseau qui m'apparaît presque plus beau sur photo qu'en réalité, car nous ne voyons que rarement la beauté de son plumage avec autant de magnifiques détails.
Image très réussie.
Un grand merci
Anne
