    Joe:

    A very interesting iris! Lots of well captured detail overall. The crop is snug, but works well with the subject, bill angle.

    The blues in the background work well with the brown/oranges in the bird.

    Cheers

    Great detail and IQ and love the sun angle. And that eye...
    Not loving the comp though. It feels tight. I think I would like to see more of the neck.
    Nice one Joe,

    That is one wicked eye indeed! Torn on the comp, but I love the close up view and juicy details.
