    Very nice. I love the exposure, SH, and most of all, the tiny speck of orange crown feathers.

    Hi John, good angled pose, and the feather detail stands out nicely. The high key works well, as it makes the bird pop.

    Hi John, nice exposure and I really like the few wet orange feathers on the head. HA, and details look good, I'd clean up the spider/bug mystery! TFS

    I like the simplicity in this image. The touch of colour in the crest makes it even better. I too would lose the web/bug. Very well done John.
