Hi Jeni - Nice - great look back pose and great eye contact - Bg compliments the bird very well. Good details and sharp throughout, The white patch on the top of the head is a little hot - going to be pushing 255 - would tone it down a little with a multiply layer.
Like it - well done :)

What cool birds you have Jeni! Love the pose. Agree with Lance on the white spot

[Alfred Forns]

Good looking bird and great bg Jeni !!!

Could only wish for softer light and more from behind you to avoid the shadow on the right !! Feather detail in great and love the overall mood !!!

Jen,

Nice pose, looks regal and gives the sense of deep thought. Clean eye and a clear smooth BR - nice post.

Jeni, Nice pose and BG. Like what you did with the frame. Agree with the techs already given. Well done!

[Jackie Schuknecht]

Like how you have him outside the frame too Jeni. Beautiful tones and BG. So sharp too. Just the techs as mentioned by Al and Gus would put it way up there:)
