From Viera wetlands. Luckily it was cloudy, because these smart critters don't like the sun in their eyes and hang around against the sun. I have no idea what the catch is, but he was enjoying it a lot.
We also have stills on the ground. I even though it was an old shoe :eek:

Fabs,
I would give you two thumbs up on that capture. Well done and to me it is just as Sharp as it should be.

Cool gliding pose, details and light. The 'mysterious' item of food adds to it. I like the BG, too, despite it not being very clean.

Great catch (you and raptor). I also like the soft light and the BG, despite being busy as Axel also had mentioned. Did you blur it by chance in the PP? Congrats!

The light is fantastic as it the fact that it has food in its beak! I wonder what a pano crop would look like?

Well done under difficult light conditions! I see some noise in the area between the wing and the tail. Background blur is effective, I don't mind the busy background.

Nice and sharp Fabs, and he is separated from the BG very well. Agree with Chris with regards to a bit of noise between the wing. Still, well captured, and his catch a bonus. Well done.
