“. . . the quality is not possible to show.”

Looks pretty good to me, Paul. Great pose, with the raised wings, and excellent detail. The complementary background is the perfect finishing touch.

get that Paul. Beautiful image. Horizontal works a treat for viewing larger but this frame as shown, begged for the vertical so you've nailed it, albeit a small sacrifice in not being able to see it at its best. (I'd take that any day with this image).

Make your life spectacular!
