Fabulous portrayal of a magnificent bird Sasan. At 1st glance I thought it was a juvenile bald eagle but this bird has much more colourful wing feathers than a juvenile bald---such a rich spectrum of browns and grays . Your burst caught the wingspread just right and I like how the wiffling of the leading edge feathers give the sense of wind over the right wing.Your focus is perfect across the whole of the bird, as is exposure. I can just imagine what this would look like printed large on aluminum.
Terrific landing pose, nicely exposed and sharp all across the full wing span. Very nicely captured.
Great approach capture, Sasan. Wonderful detail and, I like that you were able to include part of the perch.

Fabulous work again, Sasan. Exceptional detail, colour and tone. I love the way the oof hills almost match the wing position. Background is excellent too. One the composition, I wonder if this would work better with a bit more of the perch showing.. and maybe a bit off the top to balance this?
