    Lovely pose and nice feather detail. I would try sharpening the bill, and around the eye area a little as it looks a wee bit soft compared to the sharpness around the chest area.

    Will

    Agree about the critical sharpness. But the feather detail looks very good.

    Nice. The face could go brighter for me. Consider doing some abstracts without the head :)

    I couldn't bring myself to decapitate this beauty. I also knew from the raw, the face was in focus and maybe the eye being darker was causing the issue. It was soft light and getting dark and the eye was in soft shadow. So I brightened the eye. The bill tip is out of the DOF but I don't mind. What do you think? Also, thanks again for the inputs.

    Looks better with the brighter eye. I was not talking about decpatiating this bird, just suggesting that you be on the lookout for future abstracts with this species.
