Thumbs up Amazon, Venezuela Crown. Blue.

This is a crown from the Piroa indians in the Amazon, Venezuela. I grew up there and I was a tour guide for many years. I posted this one for the weekend challenge but I thought it was so nice I share it again. You can give me constructive opinions.

It looks like it's made out of the feathers of the blue and gold macaw I had.
Beautiful shot with good bokeh.

Just beautiful, Juan. I love the composition and the colors are wonderful! The textural contrast between the feathers and the woven band is great too, and the water drops with their magnification really add interest. Love it!
