Love the open beak, postion of wings and details. Nice job on the colors too.

[Fabs Forns]

Lovely background and whites, wish for the full wing to be extended. Good placement in the frame, although it could go bit more right.

Lovely image. I love the pastels in the sky the bird almost but not quite seems a part of the sky. I like this atypical wing pose.

Best,

On my monitor the colors, even though nice as is, look a bit off. They don't look pink enough or bright enough. This may be or may be not for real(subjective). Perhaps a white balance adjustment? Otherwise this is a spectacular shot to my eye.

Nice photo! Amazing how you can see some of the bird's bones!
