I love it Steven , it is beautiful I would reduce the blacks just a little bit to make the bird less visible , just an idea
It's almost like a sketch Steven and very skillfully construed.
A very innovative thought and creative work
Very, very nice indeed Steven, but I'd tend to agree with Binnur and perhaps reduce the blacks just a little (especially on the eye).
Love it just as it is. Taking it one step further could also be interesting! Well done!
The eye certainly seems very dominant at the moment and perhaps reduce the wing area to the same blackness level as the neck?
But all these suggestions are just slight tweaks to an excellent image.
'Me too' for like it as it is
Looks like we are all interpreting the image the way we think we like it ... or that I achieve what I intended to do.
Print it (30*20"), frame it and put it up on the wall. It would be a great talking point.
