I made the BG brighter ( higher key ) and added a texture then boosted the contrast on the bird.

I'm not a big fan of highkey images but the added texture on this is along with the boosted contrast is fantastic ... beautifully executed image and presentation.

You really have to click on this one to bring in the dark bg, then you see just how beautiful it is! Love it Jerry!

Thank you all. The shadow box is nice to remove surrounding distractions and the pictures in them may be larger too.

Great use of high key, Jerry- especially for this particular striking, high contrast bird.

Jerry, your birds are phenomenal,such sharp detail. I like the
background texture on the snow, too.

Thanks. With the Photo and Digital Art you can push the sliders to "11" to see if you can get something you like:)
