    Better when they bank away from you and you can get the underside of both wings

    Very good detail. good wing position. some might suggest softening the shadows under the wings but I like it as is. Might consider selective sharpening the eye.

    Very nice shot Ken.
    It looks like NR took away some feather details.
    Have you made a decision on the body yet?

    Good one Ken Do like that banking pose !!

    Troy has point on the feather detail ... on the white part could be just at the edge? With the hard shadow Ray points out you can try softening, don't try removing just work each side and try cloning form one side to the other at about 65 % Will take a few tries but worth the effort !!!
