Hi Will , was just about to post same bird but you beat me to it. Good feather detail and nice low shooting angle. I like the background colour. A little head turn would have raised it another notch. Nice image.

nice one,love the color in the BG,good exposure.TFS.

Very nice neat well presented shot Will, I think the feather detail is lovely.

Nicely done, Will. I love the whites, and the background colours are pretty darn good too. Not sure you needed such high ISO, but I suppose you were prepared for action.

Hi Will, good angled pose, and you certainly nailed the exposure on the whites. The feather detail is nice and sharp too.

Nice light and good warm background gives the image a pleasing mood.

Thanks for the comments, appreciated as always :S3:

I like the details, exposure, water color and composition. Very well done Will!
