    Joe:

    I like the diagonal lines of the right wing and tail, framing, eye contact, slightly dangling feet.

    Cheers

    What a graceful pose, with great detail in the face. The whites on the shoulder may be a bit bright but it is a white area without expected detail -- looks good to me.

    Very nice and sharp, Joseph. Like the head on view with bot eyes, but angling pose. Loi

    Thank you all for viewing and commenting, very much appreciated. Dianne I shall look at the white on the shoulder to see if possible to tone it down and extract what detail is there.
