Very nice blues in the BG and I would smooth out the whitish area in RLC.
I wish for a better HA. Image nice and sharp.
The sun was up for this image so you did well controlling the whites.
I see a bit of purple in the gray on the far wing but it could be my monitor.

Sharp with a killer sweet BKGR. The near wing needed to be fully up. And there looks to be something funky right at the front of the eye ...
