Great picture, nice warm colors, very nice feather detail. I found the oof branches on the background give a nice touch.

An interesting pose with good detail and nice light. Because the bird is looking up, I'd like to see more room at the top of the frame for it to look into. And perhaps a bit more room at the right, as well.

[Gary "Jake" Jacobson]

Beautiful light and I like the cocked head. I would agree that a little more real estate on top and right would be nice. Nice work!

[Alfred Forns]

Gorgeous image John Just the extra room at the top !!! Love the feel Excellent feather detail and sweet bg !!!!

[Cindy Cone]

Wonderful image, John. Love the pose and lighting. I agree that a little more room at the top would make it even better.

[Glenn Bartley]

I like teh inquisitive pose but find the image really tight on the right.

I don't think the HAP would argue with this one. Lovely pose and excellent detail. Interesting BG.
