    A friend brought Kitty to the PGT this morning to fly her. The flight shots were no good because she kept going into dense thickets. I did capture this portrait of her as my friend held her on his fist.

    I'm hoping he will bring her back and I can try to photograph her in a more open area.

    Great Portrait. I would have gone for a greater F-stop, if possible

    Super sharp with a great BKGR. Had the bird's head been angled more towards you the image would have been much more powerful....
