I like it a lot Steve !! Excellent feather detail and good looking bg The setting is different and interesting and particularly like the intense look !!!

[Gus Cobos]

Excellent composition, image, and capture Stephen. The pine needle puts this one over the top. I like it. You have razor sharp details and good color rendition. The head angle and eye contact is dead on. congrats on a job well done...:cool:

A beauty all the way round. Really like the unique composition to go along with the nice light, detail, and BG.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I like the details and eye contact. The branch adds interest.

It's a great pose, and f/11 helped get you good sharpness everywhere on the bird. What really makes the image for me is the pine needles up top. I might remove the vertical line in the BG that runs through the bill.
