Great photo! Color and composition (as previously mentioned) are awesome. The focus is absolutely incredible. One thing though... it looks PISSED!!!

Well, now I'm jealous... where did you get such a clear, unobstructed shot of a bird that big? The ones I took in Oz were disappointing in the end, but could never find a clean angle. Great detail and DOF!

Thank you all for these great comments and invites!

I was able to shoot this birdy in the Belgian Zoo Planckendael near Brussels. I was very lucky to capture it like this. Focusing was really difficult considering it's rapid head movements.

Belgian Cassowary... nice. I saw a couple near Sydney, but couldn't get close enough (without a monstrous fence) to get a clean shot. Again, well done.
