Hi All
Probably the wrong time to post this in light of Tom's efforts but . . . A bit of a different feel especially as the bird is eating some 'bait'.
Wondered about your thoughts.
Cheers,
Chris

Chris,
I like the different view here. The snowy background is a little bleak, but certainly isolates the subject well.

Nice colour and detail on the bird but I'm not sure about the pose - personally I'd have liked to see a bit more of the other wing

Nice image, I like how you can clearly see him eating whilst flying. But would prefer to see the other wing.

Thanks for the feedback guys. This is one of those images that I can't make my mind up about. As mentioned, the lack of the second wing makes the bird look odd and while I like the starkness, maybe the sky needs to be 255, 255, 255 white.
Ultimately, this will probably end up in the waste bid but it is good to get other opinions on work that isn’t 100%.
