Bearded Vulture (Juvenile)

[Dion Lifton]

1 d mk 2 , 500 mm , f4 , iso 500 , 1/1250 sec , taken in ambient light , image is full frame from left to right ,
i could have extended the canvass on the right but liked the presentation as is ......

Great details, light and eye contact. I probably would have added some canvas left and a bit more right.

Lovely image. Very difficult to get eye-level flight shots of vultures. Very well done.
What was in the background ?

[Dion Lifton]

Like the light, colors, and details. The comp is nice as presented but I might've added just a bit more to the left side (as viewed), just enough to give the end feathers more corner to point to (same as the right side)
