Sensor cleaning (Osprey)

[RAM MALLYA]

Check out the eyes of the bird showing off the nictitating membrane (Natural sensor cleaning) . I wish we could have such cleaning system to clean our lenses and sensors of our cams .

Shutter 1/1579
Aperture F/8
ISO 800
Tripod Set on a boat
Canon 1D Mark II N

All C&C welcome.

Nice exposure and BG Ram. I think it would have been nicer to get it without the nictating membrane and more of a head turn.

Good-looking specimen and composition. I wish for more eye contact, would try to get more details in the blacks and agree that it would be stronger if the nictitating membrane wouldn't partially cover the eye.
