    Good close-up and sharpness. Wish the head wasn't angled away, and I would warm up the WB a bit. Not sure you needed such a high ISO and so small an aperture.

    Good detail in this portrait, Scott. I agree about the head angle and bluish color cast. Also the bird seems tight in the frame. Thanks for the post!

    I like the carpet necks! Too tight, too dark, and the head needs to be at least parallel tot he back of the camera. If -4/3 was indeed the EXP compensation then you need help understanding EXP :) Was that the correct value?
