Really nice, Mike. Great color, detail, and comp. Not the typical Mike Moats post, but just as outstanding as all the rest of your work.

Not only are the colours punchy, but the comp with diagonal lines and the triple grouping is first rate. Mike this is three out of three! Darwin

The composition is exquisite... did that thing live or did you arrange the feathers?

Hey Basil, I bought the feathers at a Micheal's craft store. Here in Michigan the winter hasn't appeared yet so its been tough shooting, so I'm having fun setting up comps like this.
Thanks to all for comments.
