    This guy has a look of contentment to it even though it does carry the name of a carrion eater. Good comp, BG, details. Exposure looks good but I'm thinking some of the blacks are a bit too deep perhaps. A touch of fill would have been good here IMO, or perhaps a simple reduction in contrast in post (but not too much!!)

    For me i find the exposure on the blacks just perfect, as is the great detail, my only thought would be regarding the neye, nicer if it was making better contact with the camera and/or darken the pupil a little

    Nice up close portrait. You have nice details around the face and love those feathers at the base of the beak. The light is a little harsh here, and I might consider reducing the brightness.
