Hello John,

Nice detail, colors and background. The eye looks really nice and I like the contrast between the dirty fish and the nice clean white feathers. Well done. TFS.

Nice exposure on the whites and blacks, detail, and really cool prey item. Cool how the bird is holing it up too. Background adds, although I might be tempted to clone out the darkest curve on the bottom to match the greyer bit. TFS

Really beautiful whites. I also think the eye contact with you is fantastic! Congrats!
