Oh my! It can't get much better than that. The eye contact is a little unsettling, as if he were eying a possible meal... Great job handling all the whites, and still getting perfect feather detail.
Love the expression!
Who won the staring contest? ;-)
It looks like you nailed the exposure and generally a perfect capture to my eyes.
Thanks for posting.
Excellent image! Great techs and the look is lovely! If anything maybe just a bit more room at the bottom and right as it's a bit tight as presented IMHO.
