    Michael, I like the comp and flying posture, and maybe adding a touch of contrast will make this pop a little more.

    Very sharp and nicely exposed. I've never seen one of these birds quite so puffed up.

    Everything perfect. Looks like the ruffle-after-the-bath flight posture. The eye looks great.

    Beautiful sharp details. I like the fluffed up look and the composition.
