    Raul:

    Sharp, well exposed, nicely scaled perch, like the grip of the feet showing so well. I like the tail being in the clear.

    Shooting angle a bit steep. Sky looks a bit oversaturated, but of course that may just be the way it was!

    Cheers

    Raul,
    You exposed it very well, I like excellent sharpness & HA. Wish for slightly lower shooting angle. But still works for me. TFS

    The steep angle is my main concern here, but great IQ with lots of detail. Well exposed, and a good head turn. Harsh light created some deep black shadows under the perch...
