    Looks great Ann! Perch, details, pose all top notch. Only thing I would do is to move the bird a little to the right to give it a little more room to gaze into. Easy fix for a super shot.

    Wow killer perch details and pose. I agree with Isaac re: more room on the left. I love that lifted claw. A real joy to view. TFS

    Wow Ann this is gorgeous!! Love the foot up pose and the great HA too. The Light is perfect and the details rock! One of your best ones of her IMO. Well done

    Hi Ann, good look back pose and overall tack sharp. The light certainly does look sweet, and the colours and feather detail all look good too. Well captured.

    Sweet light, perfect pose, great detail. What a beauty of a frame! Yes to moving her a tad to the right, but that's a tiny nit.
