Wonderful character captured Alan.
Beautiful job of handling bright backlight and white feathers.
That's it, I'm getting off my counch and going for a walk with my camera.

Thanks for your kind comments

some nice portraits here.

reminds me that I shot some like this a little while ago but forgot to post them too.

2nd is the clear winner with these.
think the vertical lines are quite distracting in the last one.
looks a tad worse because the viewer has no choice but to compare it to the one above it, and there is no comparison.

well done

Love the varience of lighting in all of these Alan, #1 is the winner for me though - that partly cautious, partly curious look is classic Cocky!
