Nice image. Overall exposure is good; nice colour density and gradation on the gray of the bird, while preserving detail. Very nice BG. If I may :) the bird is showing a diagonal direction towards the lower left of frame. The eye wants to be led in that direction so perhaps a little more canvas might be applied to the bottom and left edges. Very good image. Gets :t: :t: :t: :t: out of 5 :clap:
 
Absolutely top shot. Beatiful, so sharp and in good light. Very well done. This is going to my favorites.
