You have exposed the colours on the BE nicely, and like how the head follows the perch. Comp wise, I would maybe move him to the left.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Overall pretty nice, but I would prefer the comp as a vertical. In this orientation the subject would need to be smaller in the frame or in a different, less erect pose (and yes further to the left) as it is too tight top and bottom. Amazingly beautiful colours on this guy...WOW!

Wonderful colors.
Beautiful capture here.

Left shift may be good.
Seems to be a 'dust spot' or something directly to birds left in bg that for me is a distraction.

Like this, super BG and colours of the bird. Comp needs a little attention, crop as a vertical or try moving the bird to the left. Well done

I like the landscape composition, BG, ruffled feathers and color bvut the bird is a bit centered in the frame to my taste Haim

Haim,

I love the OOF background. The head angle on the bird is great. Would have a little more appeal if the head angle was just a few degrees more towards you. I lthink the detail in the feathers and the color saturation are wonderful. . Love the lighting and the pose. Excellent job. You might possibly think about cropping this into a vertical

God bless,

Chris
