Great composition, exposure, and focus. The softness probably helps convey grace, but I'd still rather see it a little sharper.

Amazing shot.

(what do you think the bird is yearning for??? just trying to tie the title to the photo.)

A real test of control of DOF unfortunately the eye and the small crest are just a little OOF but otherwise a great shot 7

I have been spending a lot of time with birds lately and I have begun to find them fascinating (vs my pre-photography view which was indifference). I think you have done a great job capturing this one, though I am curious about the lighting it does not look like sunlight, is he in a zoo or something what kind of lighting did you use to bring out his details? VEry nice job!
