    Killer BG and excellent exposure and detail. IMO I would crop more off the right and also a little more off the left and make it a vertical. Love the catchlight in the eye Abdulgani. Thanks for sharing.

    I agree the details look good - borderline oversharpened. Terrific BG! The HA is less than ideal - always better to have it turned our way rather than away. I also find there is abit too much room behind the bird. I'd crop there until the bird reaches the corner, and maybe even a bit more.

    P.S. A small dust bunny is visible behind the head ;-)

    Supreb BG, I like the pose and light
    Wouldn't mind a better HA and I think that less room on the right would work better.
    On my monitor the neck looks sharper then the head / eye. I would remove the dust spot.

    Welcome. You did well with a potentially awkward COMP. You needed to move left or wait for a better head angle. And that is a pretty big dust bunny....
