Desaturated the greens a little and sharpened a tad - cropped a sliver from the top - otherwise as shot!

Comments welcome as always.

A nice portrait !

[Bill Dix]

A beauty. Maybe the best of the series IMO. (Also, interesting techs with high ISO, relatively low ss for the Sig, and +2.3 EV.)

[Ricardo Rodriguez]

Love this image, Lance, especially the eye and tongue. Great BG, too. Big congrats!!

[Alfred Forns]

Looks fine Lance Like the reflection in the eye and tongue position !!!

Hi Lance, great portrait with open mouth and sharp where it needs to be. Topping it off with a muted backround(toned down nicely) and even lighting...

[Jackie Schuknecht]

Great Lance love the contrast between the bird and BG. Love the tongue sticking out! As shot and no NR............ am envious.
