An interesting portrait....I like the inquisitive look. It's certainly sharp where it needs to be but I'm thinking I might like just a bit more DOF. It's always helpful to post the techs. Subtle colors. Any chance you could have moved in one direction or the other for a more uniform BG?
Hi Noel,
I like the up close pose. Would clean up the bill with the traces of feathers and the white scratch like the line running down the bill. Also the two multi colored vertical lines in the background going through the the bird are a bit distracting; my eye keeps drifting there. i'm not too sure about the white reflection in the eye; can try cloning out and reconstuct the natural colors...:cool:
