Description

Time for a change with this Crested Barbet: This week I was tempted to start with a short series of bird captures I made. They are representative of fairly common garden birds in central South Africa. For you enjoyment I added a link to more info and names in 3 languages and hope it is not going overboard.

South Africa has been experiencing problems with international Internet links lately and I hope it is solved soon hence my absence in the galleries.

extraordinary shot for its colour, the macro perfect and the composition with a important space to the background that is very interesting vanishing texture. Master work really

Beautiful bird and an excellent shot. I love the colors and wondering about the focal lenght from 49mm, you must have been very close to the bird... Wonderful image!!! Lara
