Quite spectacular. I wish the wing didn't graze the edge of the bird's coiled neck.

Great chroma and lovely slightly translucent wing feathers, pose is very nice as well, wonderful water color to boot, my only minor nit is the dark spot in an otherwise wonderful BG, Still very nice!! Congrats!! 8)

Completely gorgeous although I wish there was a bit of separation between the bird's head and wing to be able to see the figure 8 more clearly. The colors are amazing.

Fine shot, Bill. The wingspread and the curve of the neck are lovely.

A beautiful silhouette. You had some gorgeous light for this one. I wish that the dark spot wasn't there but I still think this one is excellent.

Very nice Bill. The graceful pose works really well with the warm tones.
