    Sharp and great shot for HH & 1/160s! Like the BG color tone and color balance of the frame. Due to dissymmetrical wings I would try to rotate the frame a bit CW (around 10 degrees). TFS.

    Cheers,
    Miro

    Lovely shot, the wings are just about prefect. Overall exposure looks good but I wonder about lifting the shadows a little bit, this might help especially the right side of the head.

    I'm impressed - hand holding this rig at 1/160! Very nice overall sharpness, nice light, and a pleasing background. The "different" wing position adds interest. I would agree with Jon about brightening the right side of the head a bit - a minor tweak to a very strong image!

    Very good sharpness and details, Ilike the "perch" and clean BG. Very good handholding technique.
