For me, the soft background has contrast, but the main focus of your photo is very similar in grayscale values.

Beautifully crisp, the birds feathered details really come out in this image. I definitely see the contrast with the use of the black and white tones, however I'm not sure this choice necessarily is to the benefit of the image. The bird certainly pops out due to the appropriate focus technique.. but the lack of color on it really still makes it blend just a bit too much into the background and gives it a stony appearance - no life or movement. I have no idea if this would work in color either, as it could just blend into the background that way too. Still I think the details on the bird are magnificent and the use of available light is excellent. I gave a 6

Nice light and focus. However, this looks a lot like an advertisement. I wish it were a bit more original.
