Beautiful capture. Classic shot - and done well. I didn't vote in this challenge, but it would have scored a 7-8 from me. Well done.

Technically perfect......a stellar photograph. I will vote it appropriately on its technical merits and meeting the challenge but it doesn't really grab me. Purely subjective, you see....

Very nicely done. Love how the blue backdrop brings out the white and orange. Excellent detail with little highlight clipping. And is that blood on the feathers near the back/underside of the beak? Ack! Well done.

Such a clear and sharp capture. My only nitpick is the composition feels a little uninspired.
