IQ and sharpness look very good at this size Bill. Exposure looks good and I like the browns in bird and setting. Nicely done.

Excellent color and detail Bill. He looks pretty laid back, not the slightest concern about the camera.

Good detail and color to match, the shadow really adds to the compositon, simple but pleasing, well done.

I go along with Ron D's comments on this one Bill. Maybe just a bit lower angle? Nice as posted.

Lovely crisp shot Bill. Would a lower perspective have been more effective?

cheers
