This photo captures a great moment. The perspective reveals the myna's wings, tail, and head. It captures this moment, when the myna looks down into the papaya, with its foot holding on. It seems as if it is inspecting or assessing what it has to eat.

The background is an indistinct setting of a warm, cream colour, putting in focus a handful of elements: the bird, fruit, and a stone surface, each with colours and textures that look well in this juxtaposition. The textures vary from the bird's sleek feathers, the moist fresh fruit, and the rough stone. The dark colour of the ground in this photo parallels nicely with the myna's black plumage as well as the dark seeds of the papaya. Meanwhile the fruit's vivid orange flesh and skin parallel with the myna's yellow beak, 'mask,' and feet, while contrasting beautifully with the darker colours. The warm but neutral background balances all of those colours.

It's a beautiful view of a myna. I think it's about to eat those seeds.^^

Many thanks for your comments. It is always nice when someone goes that extra bit and says why they like something.
