    Terrific perch and BG. Like the raised foot and the twig too. You're a little crowded up top and the side-light looks a little harsh.

    Susan, excellent exposure and detail on the whites, and love the outspread wings. I agree with Doug, a bit more space ULC would work. His building material a bonus.

    Great landing pose, good details and BG. Another vote for more room at the top and I would tone down the whites a bit more.

    Good EXp control in the rather harsh light. Love the raised foot.

    Beautiful pose and great timing Susan. Really shows this little beauty off and the raised foot is an added bonus in this capture. Your exposure was spot on. Congratulations on a lovely capture.

    I like the feather detail and wing spread. Building material adds interest. I am not too sure about the branch infront of the wing though.
