What I like best here is how a tail feather has slid in between two of the wing's primaries. Alot of reflected light on said wing and tail...you could darken them a bit.

Wow, what a beautiful pose and amazing detail of the plumage. Soft light and clean bg. Lovely all around.

I agree. The photo looks over-exposed.

The pose reminds me of a sailor in front of the boat :)

You could duplicate the layer and use multiply as blending mode, adjusting the opacity. Black feather look washed out as presented.

Thanks for all the comments i really like the wings the way they interlock as far as your comments Fabs i'm not that advanced in photo shop to do that yet Once again thanks

Nice image Brad. The posture of the bird is great, the wings and tail feathers are spread out beautifully. Good work.
