    Nicely caught and exposed though some black are almost featureless. The head/eye appears just a little soft to me.

    Well captured Kurt.......Yes I would sharpen the head and body, but not much, wet feathers....Of course it depends on how much of a crop....I do like the pose and the colours throughout.

    Hi Kurt ... a real stunner IMHO .
    Colors and pose are great .
    Personally I would choose different tonality , but this is a matter of taste and not a deal breaker .

    There are some artifacts here and there in the open wing and some of the surrounding areas .... where do they come from ???

    TFS Andreas
