Magnificent Sunbird (Aethopyga magnifica)

Gotta agree with the comments on that bright background, the bird gets lost in the red flower. Beautiful bird BTW

this looks to be a great pic of a pretty bird.
as presented, it is overwealmed by the background.
bright b/g probably caused bird to be underexposed.
well worth some shadow lifting on the subject imho.

A beautiful bird, nicely posed, but unfortunately against the light. Have you tried brightening the shadows on the bird. Certainly worth trying for another opportunity.

That is a beautiful bird. Nice shot.

This is one bird I'd want another opportunity to photograph. It is is just so striking.
