Gorgeous composition and lighting on the feather Yves. Love how the feather is shimmering. The artist in you should be very proud.

Not an easy shot to get either but you captured the detail and beauty of this lost feather perfectly. Very artistic presentation and the narrative complements it so well. Great shot, Yves!
