    James:

    Well captured preening pose, with good eye contact, feather detail, low angle, simple color palette. I like having a few of the bubble patches for detail, but might consider cleaning up some of the smaller ones.

    Cheers

    Randy

    James, I love the pose and the low angle. The color tones in the image are appealing.

    Love the light here!
    The pose and impecccable details make for a very interesting picture, only wish it was not so centered.

    Nice pose and low angle. The dark band in the BG could have been problematic, but it is placed in a good spot. I'm not sure about the WB though, seems a little greenish?

    The upside-down head look is really awesome with the clean background. Nice work. Glad to see you're out there...
