    Black capped Lorikeets grooming

    Hi again...this was taken at a bird park ( I ADMIT IT !!! )

    Do you think a black and white would work with this...i like the yin yan sort of effect. In fact, i call it Yin Yan Bride and...Groom.

    Claudio, great capture. My only suggestion would be to find a way(and have no clue how) to make the beaks stand out more. The one in the red feathers especially gets a little lost. I love the color version!

    Admitted or not it is a good picture, which matters in my opinion - as long as you declare the place.

    For me the first question is: why erase the beautiful colors(colours) of the parrots in the first place? To answer your yin/yan-question: for me the picture - after a very quick "run" to convert it, does not work in black/white.
    The "yin-yanning" you see is IMHO even accentuated in color(colour).

    Very nice shot, before reading your comments I saw the image and immediately thought "yin-yan"

    Hi Claudio. Very nice and colorful shot! I wouldn't convert it to B&W. IMO cropping the green part from the top might improve the image.
