I think this one is my favorite pose so far. Love the that wing position and the angle works so well. You have a lovely pastel BG. The only issue I see is a slight magenta cast which can easily be remedied.

Dan:
great pose as Marina mentioned, whites on head look better than last post, nice background.

I would a a little room all the way around if you have it.

Cheers

Randy

Terrific shot, Dan. Love the wing position, poised talons, and the beautiful background. I might be tempted to run another round of NR on the lovely BG, and maybe take down the highlights on the bird just a tad; but I'd love to have this one in my files, just as is.

Hi Dan, I thought your previous image was tops, but they get better each posting. Fantastic wing poition, sharp, and against a killer BG. I agree with Randy for more space all round. Congrats on a fine image.

Great post and tact sharp.

I too would like to see some more room on top, bottom and left side.

I like the subject, pose and the nice BKGR.

You have achieved a large DOF for f5.6, maybe it is cropped a little. If so I would add some canvas back to give a little more space around the subject.

Cheers

I like the wing position, details, sharpness and BG. A little more room all around would be nice. Well done Dan!

This is a beauty and I like your title.
Another vote for a bit more room bottom and right otherwise no nits from me.
That BG is simply amazing!

Wonderful wing position, and this background is beautiful. Other issues are easy fixes.

Thanks for the comments, I did not notice the magenta caste (that is why I like others to view and point stuff like that out).
I appreciate it.
I did crop it very tight for something different.
It is a very large crop (maybe 15% of original) so I have more room and several different versions.

Excellent pose and great bg. Did you say 15% of original (at iso 1400, no less)? Wow, the D800 sounds like a great camera!
