From last Sunday at Lake Okeechobee.
This image is a large crop, the best IMO of a three shot sequence.
Image made around 10:00AM, golden light was already gone.
Canon 40D, 500mm f4, 1.4TC, Tripod, Wimberly Head
1/1600S, F6.3, ISO 250, 700mm, +1/3 Exp. comp.
C/C as always welcome,

Lucky you, it's been a long time since I've seen one.
Not too bad for the time, sharp face and nice wing blur.
Hope to see you this week-end!
Hi Raul,
Tough light to shoot in and there's a little evidence of the crop coming through but that's a great pose and look you captured.

Hi Raul,
Love the pose but you are loosing a lot of details in the wings and feet.
Pose and eye contact are great but there seems to be a lack of details and it looks a bit too contrasty. Did you apply NR?
Really good wing position. I agree about the details.
What I wouldn't do to photograph one of these birds... I love thev pose and eye contact, although the light seems a bit too harsh. Congratulations still!
The crop definitely hurts this image, which is a shame, because you got great wing position and eye contact. Thanks for posting!
