Darned good for a monopod and 30% of full frame! Excellent detail.

Great exposure with a relatively pleasing background - the only nit is what looks like some motion blur in the head. A boost of the ISO to 800 would have remedied that.

nice shot, Dan. great job exposing this black bird. I love the ruffled plumage and pose. Nice bg and perch also, though I might slightly darken the perch. Ravens are wonderful birds and great subjects--glad to see this.

Excellent, Dan. Beautiful job on the exposure. It's a perfect balance of showing the detail without making it unrealistically bright. Nice bg and head turn.

Nice work with the monopod, and good image quality with that large crop tossed in. Exposure is on the money. I like the pose.
Well done.

Dan,
Very good work on the exposure, ravens can be very difficult and you did well. I like the pose, the setting and the background. I also like the head turn and look at the eye
