Love the texture of the feathers. Lighting is quite good. Nicely cropped.

Comment by dragonlady:
Thanks for all the votes 5 and above..I genuinely thought this was a powerful shot, especially in the rotated position, since I tried it in all directions and even tried it cropped more, but this is still my favorite angle; I agree with Minstrel, it speaks to me, too. On some level it causes an emotion in me, and that's all that really matters: that it touched me and a few other people..

imo, the 90 rotation is not an improvement.
