GREAT wing position!! Perfect timing for this image. I love how the feathers are nicely seperated, very cool. The exposure looks good too. You could/should apply some noise reduction to the BG, and I would love to see more room in front of your subject.

Excellent detail, and love the forward wing position. I also like the grey/white shown on the wings, contrasted against the lovely blue water. I agree with Daniel about more space in front, and some NR could be applied to the BG. Still, well captured.

Congrats on the 600! Looks pretty sharp! I would add some canvas up front and also remove the bill sheen. Thanks for posting!

Cool pose and details. Another vote for more room at the right and I see a slight color cast on my monitor.

Like it as presented. The falling drops of water add interest. Very nice details on the wings. Well done!

Is it a blue cast, Axel ?

It's greenish/turquoise. Could also be due to harsh light. Enjoy your new lens!

Wonderful image mon ami! It is a touch tight for my taste, but it has so much detail, it is incredible. I adore the little droplets of water and if anything, I would perhaps touch up the little hot spots on the tip of the bill. :) WOW!
