Hi David, beautiful bird, nice soft light. I love everything about the image except the square crop. My suggestion would be a different crop, a 3x2 with the bird placed off center. I get the feeling this was cropped from a vertical with the bird centered. Thank you for sharing.

Very nice. Detail in the whites looks great. Like the pose and the light. Agree a different crop might suit this better.

Really fine focus and exposure on this David. I agree with the idea of a rectangular crop---I think the leftward lean of the neck, the spike of feathers stabbing leftward and the line of bubbles all support such a crop.

Apologies for being contrary here. Something seems to have gone wrong, maybe in PP because there are strange patches where definition has been lost. I don't know enough to categorize these but they don't look right, they just look hot. Overall the image looks washed out and a levels inspection suggests this.

I am fine with the boxy crop here with perhaps a bit more room on the right (if he had it). The WHITEs in Pane 6 are greyed pout ...
