I felt that the slight greenish cast sort of brought out the blue of the subject, but then again I might be rationalizing... In any case I like the balance created by the vegetation. My usual fractalius treatment. Comments and critiique welcomed.

Bill another good job, like the high key look. sharp, decent head turn..thanks for sharing
The feather detail on the wings and neck is wonderful. The vegetation on the foot - very nice touch. I like the warmer (green-yellow) cast to the background - it softens what may otherwise be a starker background (for me, anyway).
I like the image very much.

Bill, I like the soft green color in the background also. Seems to be a hint of noise in the bird. I like the pose and the composition w/ the vegetation. Nice work as always w/ the filter.:)
Bill, In addition to everything else that has been said, I also like the way the wings are posed - adds a great dynamic feeling to the image!
Patti
Great pose and I love all the algae over the foot. If it were mine I would clone out the OOF plant underneath the chest area.
Excellent image Bill! I really like the fract treatment on this one and the blending of the background and foreground is very interesting visually. Nice one!
Thanks Paul, Denise, Deborah, Patti, Jackie, Kerry! Appreciate the feedback! regards~Bill
