CommentThis juvenile Cassowary was enjoying a shower under a sprinkler when I captured this moment. The water droplets provide a nice texture and enhance the bokeh. Eyes is sharp and plumage detail is good. The subtle developing colours are very attractive and add a nice contrast to the balance of the bird's look. The late afternoon light was particularly pleasing hitting the front of the bird with a soft golden glow.
