It was a real treat to spend an afternoon at Bill Forbes' pond in Arizona. Absolutely overwhelming bird activity!
What do you think of this setup that I created for this fella??
Camera Model: Canon EOS 7D
Shutter speed: 1/400 sec
Aperture: 9
ISO: 400
Lens: EF600mm f/4L IS II USM
I recognized that rock. Been there with Alan Murphy , and it is a fantastic spot. Love the set-up and the BG. Fine capture of a real nice bird. Might just tone down the rock a bit. It seems bright.
Lovely set up I like it very much, is there some artefact at the top of the head quill - it looks a little smudged, other than that very nicely presented. I keep looking at the plumage - is it perhaps a tad over sharpened or was it very bright light? Also perhaps the rock and lichen just a little too bright? Minor criticisms I think this is a fine image.
Glenn,
Wonderful image! Would love to see a wider photo of the entire set-up :)
No critiques from me!

The setup is perfect, so is the whole composition, Glenn.
superb and impressive setup , i love the way you have captured the bird in all its details and a good pose, wont change a thing here
A super picture, with great pose, sharpness, bg and details. I agree with the comments about posting a larger version, and perhaps toning down the lichen a bit.
