What a finely detailed portrait. Like the pose and a slight head turn towards us. Lovely BG. Not sure it that small white V shape touching his back is a cloning artifact, or part of the BG.

Hi Geoffrey, thank you for viewing and commenting. I didn't do any cloning on the background so my guess is that it is a fluff of feather or something stuck to the bird. I didn't notice it until you mentioned it. Not sure if I will remove it of leave it. Thanks again, much appreciated.
