Lovely picture, good luck author

Thanks my friend!

Oh my goodness. I can't imagine walking peacefully along a path and then finding this "beast". How absolutely beautiful he is and you caught him with your lens! He is sharp and easy for us to see with a nicely chosen dof you softened the background and serendipitous that the background is colour co-ordinated. I like your crop and compositional style and the diagonal slant on which this prince sits! I wonder where this was taken...in Costa Rica perhaps? Nice one.

Fantastic picture. Congratulations.

Nice shot... The old timers here might think this was mine LOL.

I like many things about this photograph. Your filter is excellent (posterize?) shows up the grunge and highlights it artistically. Also, the crop, is nice and tight holding our eye on the focal pops which are easy to see, clear. The colour palette rocks in black and engine hot hot red. WEll saturated is this photograph and is a pleasure to review.
