This guy is a beauty. Nice capture and pose. Exposure looks good and head look sharp. Like the BG may tone down the bright patch on the right sky a tad, but no biggy. TFS

Hi Mike, love the contrast here against that dark sky. I really do not see anything I would change. Excellent shot!

Really great shot! Don't see anything I'd change either. Well done!

Hi Mike, I like the determined look of the snowy, obviously has his eyes on something. Excellent detail in the whites, and those eyes pop nicely. I agree blending in the whiter area of the BG.

Mike - excellent capture of the snowy. Exp and sharpness both look good. Only minor point is that I would move your watermark a little lower and reduce the opacity of it so that it doesn't compete with the bird. Congrats on this one.

TFS,
Rachel
