This time with two spread wings.
Hope it's not dark on your monitor.

Mark II 600mm f5.6 1/3200 ISO200 HH and a little crop.

Thank you for looking.

Haim this absolutely superb, good detail and colour captured. The spread of the tail feathers really adds to the image. I suppose if anything you could possibly play around with the comp, but perfect as is IMO ...A big congrats

[Brian Barcelos]

Very good exposure. Comp looks fine to me and dosn't look to dark. You did a good job and this is a wonderful species. Congrats

I really like how the tail spreads, good details and sharp eye. Light doesn't look to be idea but still like this a lot.

[Ramon M. Casares]

It looks stunning on my monitor. Great pose, lively exppsure and superb detail, I wish only for tad more room at the bottom and less at the top.
Congratulations!

[Daniel Cadieux]

Wonderful photograph Haim. I like the spread tail, and the slight bend in the wings. Doesn't look too dark from my end either.

Hello Haim!
The tail spread takes it over the top for me - big congrats!
Best,
Nicki
