Hi Gene,
I like the composition. You display good color rendition and sharp details in the feathers. The head angle and eye contact are good...I like the high key look in the snow...:cool:

all the techs look perfect!!! awesome exposure on the bird!! compostionally, i think the bird would look better in the upper left corner of the frame.

It looks like he's floating on ice! Wonderful lighting and kudos on getting the exposure so dead on. I love these guys' pink feet and that aqua ring around his eyes!!!

[Alfred Forns]

Really nice Gene !!! You made a gorgeous image So appealing against the snow !!! Just right for me !!

Hi Gene - like it a lot - wondering if it might have been better if there was more room in front of the bird. well done :)
