Nice action shot, Geir.

Hi Geir, nice action shot. Sharp and always cool to have a prey item. It would have been great to have the back leg in focus and IMO may have been nicer to have as a horizontal not vertical crop.

Splendid action shot, and I like the comp. I'd love to see one of these guys some day. Heroes of bird migration. I'm curious why you didn't opt for a higher ISO to get more SS and/or DOF.

Feeding and scratching...a multi-tasking bird! I too am wondering about the techs. There is more noise than I would have expected for ISO 100 though.

I sense this may be a large crop given the techs? I am surprised that there is noise in the background - this leads me to believe it was a large crop? Having said that I like the image very much. You seem to have a style that puts the observer right there by the subject.
