Excellent exposure John showing good feather detail.

Agree with a slice of the RHS to get rid of the brighter bits and the leaf?? sticking in half way up.

Cheers

Thanks all
I agree the bright bits and the bit of perch should go but whenI I tried a slice off it the right just didn,t balance at all,
Thanks for your input. Cheers
