Nice detail of a species in different location. I find the frame somewhat restrictive and tends to detract from the subject imho.

Terrific shot, really detailed, I am not too keen on the frame though, but that's just personal opinion.

Hi David,

as you know I like em big in the frame but this ones a bit too big even for me :smile:

Still very nice pose and lighting :wavey:

Everything seems to be sharp with wonderful feather detail although Im seeing variable light behind the bird and around the feet. Nice to see in a different environment though.

nice light and detail, a bit more room at the top and bottom would be ideal, there also seems to be a slight halo around the bird
