Really good! Can't go wrong with such a bird. You've got the feather detail without loosing it all
in the BG. The combo of blue and pale brown in the BG goes very well with the bird. You also got
some of the irridescent color on the back. I like it!
One remark, why ISO 200 and F8? Why not ISO 400 and F4?

Cheers, Ilija

This is fabulous Sergey! I love the unforced, impeccable sharpness and the blacks are "to die for". Also like the pose/lookback.

All in all very nice indeed.
