I liked the effect of the sunlit osprey against the shadowed bg.

I agree Jim. Composition is nice also.

I also like the contrast against dark BG, nice full wingspan too.

Beautiful comp. and the BG makes this pop. Love the diagonal formed by the wings.
I guess you know there is no thumbnail image showing , as is the case with many of the posts.

Nice wingspread and agree that dark background makes the osprey stand out. However on my screen I see an area surrounding the bird that is noisy. This noise is almost like a silhouette around the bird while the rest of the background is smooth and clean. Not sure if it's just me seeing this..
