I guess this will do quite well these birds turn up with monotonous regularity in the top 20, avery competant shot but I dont like the large amount of overexposed sky.7

Beautiful shot!!! Such detail on his face and neck, and the background contrasts so well.

This seems a tad bit dull. I wish the colors had more oomph. It might have more impact with a dark background and the bird not centered in the middle. The blurred tree in the background is a bit distracting. Zooming in on his head and deleting part of his lower body and wings might work more effectively for this shot, so we could concentrate on his face. Hope this is helpful.

One of the problems using something that has been done so many times before on this site is you need to do an exceptional work. This lacks a lot of detail on the feathers that we have come to expect from this photo. Good luck

very unusual cropping with the tops of his wings poking into the image on either side like that.
