What a perfect capture... Beautiful light, details,composition and take off pose. Well done!!

[Jeff Sorbie]

Great Capture Vivaldo. I love the warm light and the contrast between the softness of the feathers and the sharpness of the claws.

[Morkel Erasmus]

great light, pose, timing and details here Vivaldo
maybe up brightness just a tad? seems a bit underexposed...

[Rachel Hollander]

Hi Vivaldo - great light, pose and I like the angle. Nicely captured.

TFS,
Rachel

What a pose, Vivaldo. Just love the outstretched wings and those talons.
The light is very interesting. Bird is a tad dark, but it adds a moody feel.
Comp is perfect too!

[PhilCook]

Well timed, great wing form, the golden light is nice, it serves to show detail well in an otherwise very bright/white bird

[gail bisson]

I really like this a lot.
I love the light and how it lights up the wings and belly. the perch is really neat with the criss -crossing lines.
I like the brightness as is.
well done!
Gail

I love the shot, wouldn't change anything. Really like the light and disarrayed feathers

[dankearl]

Awesome pose, I would not change a thing.
Great shot!

My first thought when I saw this capture was "WOW." After reading Morkel's advice about brightening it up a little, I took it into PS, upped the levels by 10 pts and then took into Nik Viveza and lightened up the underbelly using 4 control points. Adding light to this capture takes an already amazing capture to the next level.

Thanks everyone for comments and suggestions. Here is the lighter version. For some reason the OP was a lot darker then my version at home.

[christopher galeski]

[Daniel Cadieux]

Awesome take-off pose, great comp, and love the perch! I prefer the warmth and richness of the light in the OP
