Hi Bill, Good detail along with nice even lighting. The HA and backround are also handled well. Would like a small bit of room on the left and bottom but otherwise well done!!

[Gus Cobos]

Hi Bill,
An excellent image and capture. I like the slight angled head turn on your subject The color rendition is very good and I like the sharp feather details...good show...:cool:

A handsome spoonie portrait. Exposure, color, HA, detail and eye contact all look good, and I personally like the tight crop. Well done!

[Alfred Forns]

Very neat portrait, love the sharpness and excellent details. Personally I wish the OOF dark area on the background at the top is not there, but that just personal taste.
