Holy crap that's cool Mic. Wonderful colors, and the out of focus beak makes the picture a little less overbearing than otherwise. That is a really shallow depth of field, the eye just barely sits focused and absolutely nothing else. I suppose Focus could be a little deeper, but hey this is pretty good. That green is just dynomite!!!

Cool. Very good detail at the eyes. I like the pattern of the features radiating from the eyes.
regards,
Arthur

This one disappoints me a bit, Mic. You often stun, but you seldom disappoint.
That green is a killer color, but it makes the other colors look even duller by comparison. Amazing that you got the focus crisp on the eye. I think it would have worked better if the focus had extended to include all of the green of the "forehead." Nice pic, but not a "10.0"

Beautiful colors and great exposure, Mic. A few more meters of DOF would make it perfect...
Yes, even if I'm an ignorant Yank that drives on the wrong side of the road, I do know the difference between MM, CM, and M.

Mic - a normal pic
Great colour, the eye is perfect and I can almost see him/her saying ”pretty polly” with a lisp (through the offset beak)
