Thanks for looking, Giulio

Very powerful image, Giulio! I would go for a wider crop and sharpen bird and fox more. Did the eagle kill the fox?

No, the fox had an accident with a car few days before :(

Nice find Giulio! I agree with Axel about additional sharpening, and would also add a little canvas on the right.

Sharpness is the main issue here. Perhaps it is quite sharp full-size but the web version definitely needs a boost. Also agree for more room left and right. Road-kill or not this is a great find...I love how the eagle is staring right at you.

Very shocking image, a natural history cruel moment. Such is nature.
Agree on the comments on the techs.

All nits mentioned. You can post up to 1,024 pixels wide Giulio! It would look even better at that size with optimal web preparatory work. Well done mate. :) The stare is a winner!
