    I like the head turn, and your sharpness is excellent. I would try to lighten some of the darks a bit. With the Mark IV, I don't do BIF at ISO less than 400 as a general rule.

    Cool head turn and I'm amazed at the sharpness given the ISO.

    The under tail shadow detracts a fair bit and as Doug noted, lightening it up may help a bit here.

    Nice head angle and pose. I would run a bit more sharpening on the head area.

    Even with my 40D my default ISO is 400.:)

    At least you had plenty shutter speed. Good details considering the heavy crop. I do wish we'd get at least a glimpse of the other wing.
