This image is full frame cropped from horizontal. In fact it is larger than full frame as I added canvas to the bottom top and front.
The top wing was slightly cropped.
I used the bottom wing tip to build up the top tip.
Thanks for looking.

Nice job karl getting the fish facing us. A little tight in the frame for me but I understand from cropping to vertical which you did nicely adding the canvas.
Nice and sharp, whites look good as is, but maybe tone them back a little on the upper body region to bring out a little more detail, good choice of vertical but yes to a little more room around.....fish dinner is always a great additive
Very nice shot and good PP skills on the wing tip. I would suggest a little more room top bottom and left and lower the brightest plumage brightness on the body just a little bit. I would also consider in general lowering the brightness I suspect you will see richer colours in the head and bill and richer blues in the sky - I don't think it would need much but I think it would have a beneficial effect.
