Beautiful shot Arsdel love the pose and details I'd personally would like alittle more room at the bottom and some toning down of the feathers on the breast.

Arsdel nice image of a bird that I've never seen. I'll echo James' comment on needing more space and add that a slight head turn toward you would have given more eye contact.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Agree with both previous posters. I will also add that I wish the perch ending was more natural looking than the cut one here. A great looking bird, thanks for posting!

Great details and good-looking bird. Adding to the other comments, you could run some NR on the BG.

Lovely portrait with nice details. The eye & around are a wee bit over-sharpened I feel.
