i agree!!....something to be very proud of. The lighting and backlighting on the plumage is simply glorious. I like that we can see deep into the plumage. It's really quite amazing how much minute the detailing of the feathers show up against the background. In a perfect world I would like to see the background lightened around the lower part of the face, so that black part stands out more from the background.
