Very nice -- the head and neck are beautifully defined, but the rest of the bird is also sharp. I like the hint of trees at the bottom to give it a little base and context.
Diane stole the words out of my mouth! Just a bit bummer the far wing was not raised higher to give it more thickness but all else looks good to me.
Hi Stuart! What I really like about your image is composition. The bird occupies a slightly more central position than typical, with a bit of room to the left for it to fly into. This allowed for a tighter crop which I love in this case.
This is a great looking bird, and very well captured.
I see faint violet semi-circle arcs in the background at the lower left, lower center, and lower right positions. They have definite edges, which make them look like processing artifacts.
Great photo Stuart! I enjoyed taking it in this morning :)
As Daniel phrased eloquently. Nothing to much to add.
