Joel, I like the set up and the pose. I'm not sure about the crop? And I wish the bg on the rhs was a little lighter. But I like it the way it is also

The set-up looks good. The background is fine for my taste. There's a couple of spots that look like they might be a little hot, then again this monitor is a bit past due for recalibration so I could be wrong on that one.
Joel....I like it very much just the way it is.....You nailed the exposure and the bg is fine!
Hi Joel, really beautiful capture and lovely bird. Excellent pose, detail, color, background, and exposure. Whites are very nicely controlled with good detail. Well done! There is a tiny little white line in the LLC, just above where the top of the perch exits the frame. It might be a part of the perch, but I would clone it away.

Joel, you have captured this Dove very well. I love the pose. The lighting, sharpness and great background make the dove stand out beautifully. Very nice.

Joel,
Love the picture as presented (great view wing feathers) and the background is GREAT!
The 300 2.8 is a great lens, this makes me want one.
Looks great to me, no hot spots from here. Nice pose and set up, good angle, catch light in the eye. I like your background and you have lovely feather detail here. Good show!
Thanks to all for the lovely comments, it's very encouraging.
