 * Support. The crop is a bit tight (I assume it was just captured this way rather than deliberately cropped), and yes the shadows are slightly noisy but not overly, and is not unexpected considering the image must have been significantly underexposed to retain detail on the white feathers. &#208;iliff    &#171;&#187;  (Talk)  20:28, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Support. Was pondering now a while about that shade but it goes exactly where the wings go and looks like a belt or a decoration, or so - and I decided that it is an artistic  asset.  --Hafspajen (talk) 17:27, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
