    Wicked pose, beautiful colours. The gaussian blur is not overdone and looks very natural.

    You did a great job applying the g-blur. I can't see any evidence anywhere. I tried this on a picture the other night, and couldn't make it look right. Love the light, pose and colors here. Wonderful image.

    Stunning image Sid, best in the series IMO. Great eye contact, colours and detail in far wing.
