Another possibility would be to make the eye and the area round the eye more vivid and eye-catching (a bit brighter, sharper, more contrast). The above crop might then be more acceptable, or perhaps do a re-assessment of the crop.

Thanks so much for that detailed critique. I started to re-think my crop and decided to post one that I’d considered and decided against. IMO, it just doesn’t have the impact of my final choice.


The eye and the feathers are both tack sharp. Comes down to photographer's preference.

Thanks, R.G. Right now, that’s beyond what I know how to do. My preference is still that close crop, though.

Thank you, and I agree about the sharpness, but I really like that close crop. It was one of those things that just “grabbed” me as soon as I saw it. The eye has it!
