Congrats on your first place win.

This is an exceptionally appealing image. It is very different from many with such a nice abstract look to it.
You skills were on full display on this one! Super.

I thought I had reviewed this when you first posted it , I looked at it and saw that it was entered into this contest and I thought to myself" That's the winner" I see today that indeed this won!
It's beautiful and so unique , there is a sense of motion in the feathers as if there is a slight breeze, what I really love is the way the feathers shimmer in the silvery blue tones.
This is very well photographed with correct camera techs, it's just beautiful and truly a pleasure to view! I love also the vertical format you have composed it in .
Very well presented!
Congratulations on your well deserved win!

A very lovely visual presented here of the soft looking feathers. I love how the light blues bring out the shapes. Composition is very well thought out. Thank you for sharing.
