Pavan Kaul from Mumbai, India
I have always loved birds and your pictures are like a treasure trove for me, to visit whenever I like. I love the fine detail, color and the restricted depth of focus in your pictures! Well done!

Laurent from Lyon, France
very nice picture.
Incredible when you know that it was taken with FX-09 witch is not the best camera for wild life (I never achieve something like that with mine).
Love the colors and the perfect focus.

@Laurent: I cannot say everything to FX-09. I only know, that the best for me and a lot of friends is the Nikon Coolpix P5100. This camera is really old and it is not easy to by it now. Thank you very much !
Lee from Fort Frances Ontario, Canada
A superb capture Sonja. You have nailed the focus in this shot perfectly. I like the composition also. Well done.

@Lee: Hi, Lee ! Every day you give me so nice words about my images ! Thank you very much ! It´s a hard work for me to write all in English but it is a nice work too !
Marion from Cincinnati, United States
Sonja: another fantastic shot! I agree with everyone and your focus is superb, so is the lighting! I am also amazed that you were able to get shots like this with your camera. WOW! How far away were you from the bird?

@Marion: Thank you for this compliments. The nearest, to make a photo is 5 meters or so. All photos I must make with the tripod.
