That's some incredible detail! Do they really have those little itty bitty single feathers about their eyes? I suppose they must.

Focus/sharpness would have made this picture. Above average rating.

Wonderful close-up and amazing details. Reminds me of one of Steve Blooms pictures.

I love closeups of bird faces. This is closer than most of mine, and the detail is stunning. Wonderful shot. 10

could use sharper focus; seems more focused on top of himage than on eye.. nice abstract , keep it up.

Wow - excellent close up! I never realized! For my tastes, I wish the focus were on the circumference of the eye itself, rather than the feathers above, but a really good composition (extra point), none-the-less! Best of luck to you in the challenge!
