Interesting you had the under of the wings, usually its the tops that have the most color, interesting capture!

It's a bit hot on the lower left. This cold be improved by moving the light source further away. Not too much though or you'd lose the good quality of light on the rest of the shot. Good texture and overall well done.

Nice variance and composing the image to make it about the textures rather than the bird itself. Well done, IMO.....8

cool subject with lots of texture. i'd like it if there was more of an emphasis on a single feather though so my eye doesn't wander so much

Very abstract in concept and execution. It could have used a little more focus as the fine detail of the barbs are lost in the overall neutral color tone of the image when viewed normally on a monitor. Standing back from the image improves it's over all impact significantly which would indicate that a more macro style lens would have been a better choice.

these feathers look removed from the "subject"...a bit flat/dull to me

Kinda soft. For a texture shot, I would have liked a sharper image to see the patterns/intricacies of the feathers. For me anyways...

Ok but would have liked to see the other side for more texture and color
