Taken last week at the Welsh Mountain Zoo, Colwyn Bay. Our elder granddaughter wanted to pay a return visit whilst she was staying with us at our holiday home in Wales.
I would have preferred a blue sky behind and may even try an imported one although I do feel the existing doesn't look too bad.

Frank,
That's a nice clear, sharp Mackaw. It's eye is nice and bright and the colours are great. However, that blurred horizon line is killing me even in Willie's mod but I can't figure out how the horizon could be crooked if the perch is straight???
If it were my shot I would darken that sky a touch and get rid of those coloured blobs at the bottom left and then all will be good.

It is not a horizon, maybe a building roof line, I can't really remember Dave sorry.
