Unusual composition. The cloud in the background is great. Works fine for me.

Love the vertical crop, George!
Wished the head didn't merge with its left wing tip ... :roll:

Agree with Hendrix that this is a high impact image. Nicely done, George.

Nice one George!! Did you rotate it? The clouds angle seems weird.

A lot of tension with the lines of the wings, the gaze and the clouds. I like this a lot.
