I seem to be straining my eyes to see this shot. The focus must be a little off. I like the composition and the little orange/yellow stars surrounding the center.

Nice sci-fi sort of shot. The colors and contrast are great.

This crop feels a little narrow to me with the outer edges of his eyelashes missing.

This seems a little dim, as though it could use a levels adjustment.

Nice image, and excellent title. It draws my attention to the position of the wings: one giving a peek at the body while the other keeps the butt covered. :) I have a little trouble distinguishing the subject from the background. I would like to see the color version of this. I am thinking that partial desaturation might be effective -- reducing the saturation of the background to almost B&W while maintaining or even boosting the colors in the bird. I like the light on the feathers.
