Another shot from our favorite haunt Giants Castle, the deckhand must have been worried at the crooked angle he/she was approaching

It is my dream to be able to photograph these majestic birds!!! Although I would've loved to see the tail and add a bit more room, this shot couldn't be any better, congratilatiions, light is terrific, sharpness and pose are outstanding, BG and exposure are also superb!
Killer bg,killer wing position and killer shot!!!
As we are at a BPN forum we don't use Oh My God phrases but this image is something like that :D
Those cliffs became quite famous :) Outstanding image again from South Africa :)
Love them all. If I had one comment regarding the cropping I would place the bird a bit left and leaving more room on the right. :)

I agree it being tight, but this was the full image, just a little foreground cropping, I would have had to add a lot of canvas. Thank you for the crits & for looking.
Really nice Loukie! Incredible pose! Agree with Gyorgy's suggestions.
Awesome timing and an incredible image Loukie. I loved all of Gyorgy's comments and agree with him a hundred percent. You have shared some excellent images with us Loukie and I appreciate the opportunity to see them. Many thanks for sharing.
I made the adjustments added canvas on right, moved bird to left, HOWZAT?
Stunning image Loukie. Lovely to have such clean and neat flight feathers. These birds are such impressive fliers - you just cannot appreciate it until you have seen them. Looking forward to my upcoming SA trip but unfortunately not KZN this time
Great moment captured. I like the pose and wing position. The repost is an improvement. I would add some room at the top.
Beautiful image! the second repost is even better, congrats.
Fantastic bird - fantastic pose - fantastic bg. The repost is great, but would add a little canvas on top as well. Wonderful image.
Well whilst all you kind fellow photographers were all sleeping soundly, I stayed awake and added to the top - I hope this sends this one "over the top"regards, Loukie
fantastic vulture shot. I like the wing pose and the details in the feathers. great light. I think the repost is an improvement.
