Very nice close up. Awesome feather detail and exposed very well. Great smooth BG that complements the subject nicely. Well done.

[Doug Schurman]

Nice job on this. Just as David says fantastic feather detail, excellent exposure and a nice background.

[John Cooper]

A very nice close-up study Robert showing great detail. The matching tones of the BG work very well here.

Robert:

Lovely detail with right amount of sharpening for my eye. Nice eye as well.

Well captured.

Sweet photo, Robert, a nice close up view with plenty of detail.

Hi Robert, excellent detail all round, and yes, the sharpness is spot on, as the finer detail of the plumage stands out perfectly. The BG colours compliment the bird nicely. For a portrait crop, I might come up from the bottom, and add a bit to the left.
