Cool pose and BG, the open bill adds to it. I would sharpen the bird more and run NR on the BG. There is a little dust spot in the upper left.

[John Blumenkamp]

Hey Jim... really like the pose and open beak you've captured here. I like the light, and thats a sweet background.

[Stu Bowie]

Lovely wingspread Jim, and well done on getting the open beak. I agree with Axel that you could run a NR on the BG.

[Doug Brown]

Love the open bill Jim! A bit more sharpening would help as would some NR on the BG.
