Great exposure and pose, but I would have liked it a whole lot better if there were more DOF.
The wing tips don't look like motion blur, but more like they were out of the plane of focus.
Was the f 4.5 intentional?
I likely would have shot this at 640 or 800 with the D300 just to get more DOF and SS.

great pose, details and wing position, excellent exposure. A bit tight on the top.

Great image. I think the sharpness is remarkable. The wing primaries being OOF is very immaterial because the rest of the bird & the focal point is so well focused. I agree that it is a bit tight at the top, but still a great capture.

On of the best Osprey shots seen in a while. Amazing detail.

I agree that 4.5 will get you good speed, especially at ISO 400.
Don't see that it has anything to do with the whites...perhaps a bit cleaner sky as a background.
Overall, to me anyway, with a wing spread that spectacular, I'd prefer to see as much of everything possible within the plane of focus...but I guess that's why we all "see" and work differently :)
Thanks for the follow up to my question.

A fantastic flight shot of this Osprey. Great exposure and details in the white feathers. I might add a bit of canvas at the top.

the pose and focus on the head with the wing blurr make this work so well...

Great lighting and detail. I might add a little canvas to the top to give the bird a little more room.
