Lots going on in the background of this one but it all seems to work with that light coming across the trogon’s face. As I’ve mentioned before, I love photographing trogons and have captured images of quite a few species of them across the globe from South and Central America to Southeast Asia. This one, the collared trogon was spotted in the Hyacinth Valley of Brazil. Nikon D300 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (with 1.4x teleconverter for 460mm) ISO 800, f/8 at 1/1000th of a second

What a beautiful bird & the light is wonderful. I don’t find the image busy – the background is nice & creamy. Good job!
