    This is a Montagus Harrier Male who came head on towards me and looked right into the barrel.

    Mk4+500mm+1.4TC.

    regards,

    Kiran,

    Wow Kiran, that is amazing. Very nice and clean bg, great exposure on the bird, and then to top it all off, you got a nice head nod! I would consider just a little more sharpening on the head, but otherwise it's stunning.

    I just like the simplicity of this image (although I completely understand that it was no easy capture!). The BG is perfect, I like the wing position,, the tilted head and the yellow eyes really work in my opinion. TFS

    Lots of personality here! The cocked head adds so much. Not an easy image to pull off...well done!

    Well captured Kiran - I love the cocked head here as if he's trying to figure out if you are aiming a Canon or a Cannon at him
