    Hi Arash Sure would like seeing some tech info !!!

    As presented would take a little of the left and bottom to tighten the image, do like the wing position and head angle but could be brighter. I think the base exposure is somewhat under exposed and opening the shadows in PS gives it a mush appearance. For these guys you need to open when doing the underside of the wings !!!

    Alfred covered it all. Really like the flight pose in this capture and the good eye contact. As Alfred mentioned it is a little underexposed and I would love to see it lightened a bit to show us a little more of the detail. Many thanks for sharing.

    Thanks, here is a link to a larger image with PS HLS adjustment, can't do more cause it starts creating halo around the wings....

    The huge problem here has not been mentioned yet: there is a huge blue cast. I corrected it in the re-post but the muddiness from too much lightening of an originally over-exposed image persists.
