"A wildlife shot with artificial light."
Fabulous work and spot-light as mentioned in my original comment. I voted an 8.
However I contest this is not a wildlife shot. It is a nature image shot under controlled in captivity conditions and I feel very strongly about the distinct difference between the two. I have no problem with zoo or sanctuary images and encourage my photo students to visit them, support them, and practice technique there for the day that that elusive subject appears before them in the real wild. I just make sure they make that distinction if they publish their captivity photos.
Again, a marvellous image and congrats on your HM! |

Wonderful detail, light and dark, and strong composition. Great dramatic portrait of a strong bird. |

Nothing wrong with photographing birds in captivity. But, the viewer should expect lots of detail on a closeup portrait. I'm not too excited about the all black bg, but it is dramatic. The strength of this image is the eye color and detail. Very nicely done. |

Spectacular, dramatic light. Looks somewhat like museum lighting, but a striking image regardless. |

Awesome lighting and spot on the eye. Great BG and complimentary tones. Most unusual portrait style. |

Good title, good lighting, good composition. I think the border detracts from your otherwise very strong shot. |
