Dear KK,

Thank you for the beautiful work of art.  I hope you will continue the countdown, may be to over 100 species.

Thanks, Dr Cheung!

It's my aim to promote the art of Bird Photography here in Hong Kong. Often common birds have their place in photography too. Just pay attention to both technical (lighting, shutter speed, dof etc) as well as artistic feel (pose, timing, background, perspective etc) and you will have a winning image ...

Best and Good Shooting!
