    Great light, pose and BG. Maybe just a bit CCW rotation.

    Pretty much perfect. Was this made to the right of the foot bridge? I agree with Alex' suggestion on the rotation.

    Very nice pose and colors.
    I find it quite soft on my screen. It especially visible on the eye and the crest.

    James, this is great light. The composition is simple and pleasing. I am hoping your pivoted the body and got the vertical version too. It does look a little soft, could use some sharpening. Well done.
