Not a bird! Still a flying thing, but a slight change of pace for me in the Free Studies ;-)
Manual exposure (and it didn't need much tweaking in PP!).
PP - converted from RAW, cropped, increased saturation and contrast, levels, USM, added border, resized, sharpened, cloned/airbrushed out a couple of blown out spots.

I like the compoisition and how the lines of the background "mirror" the shape of his body. I also like the crispness of the wings. Good luck in the challenge
