CommentClose up portraits like this are usually very hard to achieve but I was privileged to have a BHS Tour with a Zoo Keeper to get close enough to do this. This was on my bucket list and finally happy to get it after waiting over a year. I never cease to be impressed with this Leica lens as the detail it produces in feathers and the focussed near eye is quite outstanding.
