    Hi

    I love it! The crop seems just right, and you caught it at just the moment before letting its feet down for the catch. Amazing sharpness for a close-up. Very nice bg bokeh.

    That's a pretty amazing capture, Alan, and I love the unique perspective. You have a lot of details throughout and the light was your friend. Seeing the beak and talons in such close proximity is powerful, and the soft blue BG is quite effective is setting off your subject.

    This is my favorite of the tight crops you have posted.
    Amazing feather detail and nice exposure.
