    A pair of green bea-eaters

    Sorr I've been away for a while but I'm preparing for our wedding in Thailand on 11/11

    Anyway, I escaped for a couple of hours from those preparations today and captured this shot of a pair of green bea-eaters.

    Hope you like it

    Andy

          Very colorful and well done image. Also congratulations on your up coming wedding. I was married there 39 years ago, and we are still together.

            What a beautiful bird Andy but I am afraid i find the oof bird in the background a distraction

              Thank you for the kind remarks everyone and especially to you Tom re the wedding - I sincerely hope that I will live another 39 years to enjoy the same.

              I had to chuckle when I read your much appreciated critiques, Stan, as I thought you might say that. I guess its a subjective thing because what I hoped to portray was an instant understanding of the depth of field while drawing the viewer in to the halo for the sole purpose of bringing you full circle to the focused bird.

              This was another shot from the same series in which the oof bird appears to be mirrored. Its as important to the image as the focused bird, I think
