Just a tad more exposure and a bit less sharpening.

Chris, when you told me then image was over sharpened I did see

It is...not sure what editing program you use, but if it is PS, then in the RAW editor, make sure you check the little icon that looks like a closed camera lens (leaf shutter) and click on both distortion and lens aberration to avoid the slight bluish lines I see around the fine feathers.

Chris, I am using lightroom.  I did see some blue fringing that I think I got.  Thanks.

I agree with Chris.
