    Lovely image of a beautiful bird, Rob. Looks like a painting with that soft light showing the details on the top of the wing. The BG works very well. Sharpening haloes are a little prominent at the dark margins so may be worth revisiting those edges. Deserves to be hung on the wall as a big print.

    Rob, good to see the downstroke of the wing, and this is really sharp. Im not familiar with the species, but I would maybe add a tad more contrast. I would also maybe take a bit off the top too.
