    Nice isolation of subject.
    Color tinges maintained in white feathers and looks sharp in flight.

    An interesting and somewhat surreal image Sid. I like the placement of the bird in the composition and the nice exposure of the wings and eye. Not sure I like the dark BG but I am sure that was a choice you made and like.

    Sid, I like the detail in the feathers. I am not sure if I like the totally black BG. Maybe a tinge of detail would give more of a sense of reality? Maybe reality is not what you wanted/

    Hi Sid - I like the black BG - something different.
    A tad more sharpening to the bird perhaps - just loos a little soft on my screen.

    Love the black background! I would be interested to see how much change there was in the original shot! Do you isolate the bird and selectively adjust the background only?
