    This is lovely Bill.
    The blue of the Mediterranean is beautiful and really adds to this image.
    Exposure is perfect.
    I like the conical shape of the perch as well. Perfect head angle.
    Light is a bit harsh but still more than acceptable.
    Nice one!

    Cool-looking crow!
    The bird gave a good look, nice exposure and pose. I find the beak of this birds to be massive! TFS

    Well designed image with a lovely perch (which I would be tempted to darken a bit) and neat BG (I first thought it to be too cyan, but I have never seen the Mediterranean). Perfect head angle, and well balanced composition.

    I would also darken up the perch, but the bird looks good and a nice BG color.

    I like the perch, HA, details, composition and BG. I agree with darkening the perch. Nice image William.

    Very nice image. The blue BG is beautiful. The bird is perfectly sharp. I agree with darkening the rock a bit.

    Thanks for the replies and advice. Much appreciated. The darkened perch sure does make it better

    Despite the harsh looking light, the frame looks great and the RP adds a bit. Love the BG color. Well done
