Hi Ramon,
A very nice, crisp, colorful image. Ideally, I'd wish for more of a turn towards you but I really like the lines and layers of the feathers you've captured with this backside view.

You do not have to stop posting these beauties Ramón because the images are really nice. The BG is fantastic and I love the action in this one. The texture of the ruffled feathers adds 3D quality to the image that I really like. My only suggestion is to add just a little bit of light to that great eye. Keep them coming

Excellent. I tend not to be overly critical of head turn, so this is just fine. Good even values throughout the colour range. Compostion is good and the texture of the feathers is splendid. This angle is one of my favorites: i.e. the a slight back view, or what I call "the 3/4 view". This is a good archive image for ID purposes as there is good plumage information, especially in the tail. Very well done. ;-)

This is pin sharp, and agree the view from the back shows more detail. Well captured.

Such a beauty Ramon I like the pose captured and nice eye contact. Well Done!

This is very pretty Ramon, Tack sharp and beautiful colours! I wouldn't tire of seeing more images like this!!!

[Tony Whitehead]

I'm really enjoying your doves, Ramon - this one especially has a lovely BG and pose. The feather detail is gorgeous.

[Dominic Cantin]
