I love the affect of the falling snow and the colors of the bird really stand out against the background. I wish the snowflake to the right of the eye was not distorting the view of the head. Well done!!!

Wow, that is a high impact image!!!!!

Big welcome to PBN, I have the feeling I'll be enjoying your work a lot :)

I would make that snow flake on his eye go away if it's OK with your ethics.

Thanks for sharing!

A really dramatic shot in terms of the pose and the falling snow around it! I love it! Very good contrast of the bird against background.

I've seen tons of images of birds of prey, but this one ranks among my top ten!
A really beautifull moment with high spirit!
When you look in the bird's eye you can see the birds thoughts, .. so lovely, indeed!
