Stunning image and the light snowfall really brings this image to another level. The pose is killer and you did a flawless job on extending canvas. I really love the way the snow reflects on your birds' bellies up up your way!

Tim,
You captured this Hawk in a great environment - the snow makes this image that much better! Wonderful outstretched wings and very nice tilt of the head. Great job on the focus as well, as I can image it may be tough with the snow and hawk flying toward you.

Instant winner, Tim. The pose is excellent, the comp is perfect and the snowfall adds a ton of character to this image.
I'm continually amazed by your images at 300mm.
