Hi Juan Carlos,
Love the DOF and the look back pose with perfect HA. Excellent IQ on the bird.
I am not loving the distorted catchlight in the eye. If mine, I would do some eye work to reduce the main catchlight and eliminate the one on the LHS of eye.
I would crop to a tighter pano to get rid of the OOF branch on the bottom of the frame.

Juan have bit of a problem with the eye, but that apart it looks great to me.

I too find the eye a bit distracting from an otherwise good image. Thanks for sharing.

Nice and sharp, good pose and perch. The bottom part of the BG is also slightly distracting but not a major issue

Juan Carlos:


Beautiful colors, sharp, good DOF. Agree about the overly busy catchlight.

I see the concern about the extra branch below.

I could also see this as a vertical.

Cheers

I like the look back pose, sharpness, details and BG. I like the idea of a little off the bottom and some eye work. Beautiful bird Juan.

very nice over the should look. I agree with the above suggestions. I would clone the bottom dark green part of the image rather than cropping.
