    The morning light makes this one special. Wing position, sharpness and BG look very good. I might add a little canvas at the top.

    Hi Gal - Nice capture and exposure. I'm seeing a slight edge sharpening halo around the bird on my monitor.

    I think the bird is kind of dark. It may be what it looks like in actuality, but, I think if it's a print that is being hang on a wall, it would be the kind of image that people would have to get close to look at it to find out what it is because, from afar, it looks like a dark inverted V on a kind of blue background...especially the bill is pretty close to the left wing. An up-wing position might have been better.
