Love it. Great pose and smooth background with ice tones. I would run noise reduction on the BG though.

Cheers,

Hisham. :toast:

A most appealing shot. The perch, the pose and those eyes in particular are all spot on. My only request would be for a little more room on the sides and top. Congrats. Richard

Nice pose and composition. Is this a large crop?

I like the perch and the pose on this one Scott. I do agree with Richard about it needing a bit more room, but mostly on the left and top for me.
