    Taken in FL. I tried to capture the snakelike head of the bird.
    The front shot were actually not as good as the back ones.

    I like the idea, light, pose and BG and might give it a bit more room at the top.

    I too like this. It has an artistic feel to it with the lovely lines and composition. Many thanks for sharing.

    I love the idea, Ilija, love the harmony of colors and detail in the plumage. Have to agree with Axel regarding more room on top for the bill to breathe.
    Thanks for being part of the project!

    Ilija, Very artistic look. I like the pose and details. The BG adds nicely to the image.:)

    Thank you for the comments. Agree about more space on top, not a problem to do here.

    Forgot to say that I like the idea of having projects,
    the theme of this one (creativity) is great idea too.

    Sorry to burst your balloon: while there are some images while the rear view works nicely this is not one of them. Seeing only a sliver of the eye does not at all work for me, and classing it (or passing it off if you would) as "creativity" makes zero sense to me in this case.

    Fair enough. I thought of this as an "abstract", not a portrait, though.
    The shape of the neck is what I tried to capture, but I didn't want to
    exclude the eye completely, plus I would not be able to get the curve
    if I shot the back only. In any case, I agree we disagree....:)
    Thank you for the comment, I appreciate it as always.
