    Nice look at this pair, showing the distinctions between male and female. Well exposed.

    Really good looking birds, great Head Angle and pose, maybe you can pull more detail on the whites, but not a deal breaker for me. TFS Geoffrey.

    Love the colours and the DOF, the wattles on the male are well shown. Possibly as mentioned a little more detail could be obtained - particularly on the male's "shoulders".
    I wonder what the bald spots are all about are they brooding patches I wonder?

    Nice colorful image, nice environment but you do have some blown whites, still a very unique image.
