    You held the whites and got good detail in the blacks Freddy. Some head turn would be nice. The image seems a little too stark to me.

    Pretty striking. Maybe a touch of head turn away to get closer to a profile of the face, but I sure wouldn't complain if this were mine.

    Nice shot at presented. Might consider removing the white spots on the rock if you're OK with that. Otherwise I won't add to what's been said already.

    Spotless as far as I'm concerned. I'd be tempted to crop closer on top for web presentation. Smooth background really makes the bird stand out.

    Nice pose, subdued colors, and detail throughout the bird. Love the pompadour! Nice, simple image as well. Just curious, is the BG just desert dirt, or is it something created/enhanced by the artist?

    Great find and good exposure considering the harsh light. I might crop a bit off the top.

    Another beauty, Fred. I think it is the starkness that makes this image. Well done.

    Very nice Freddy. I don't like the square crop, perhaps a little more roon in front but that's a personal preference.

    Keep up the good work!

    Beautiful image, Freddy! I tend to agree with Maxis about the crop, but thats all just personal preference stuff.
