    Interesting coloration. What kind of hawk was it? I like the profile.

    hi oscar!! you find some very interesting subjects and this one is no different!! beautiful bird. it does look like you are shooting under a flourescent light though. you may need to change your white balance to get rid of those flourescent tones. also, a flash would have helped get more detail in the feathers and put some light in the shadows.

    hope to see you guys soon!!

    Hey Oscar,
    Nice close up pose. The colors do look a little funky. Agree with Harold on the flash. Good eye contact, would have liked to have seen just a tad of head rotation towards you. All in all, good job... :D

    Hi Oscar What are you up to there?

    Not sure what it going on. Probably mixed lighting and wrong direction. Captives are very difficult to photograph. Exposure seems a bit over and there are several catch lights. Did get a good head angle !!

    Oscar, I'd be curious to see a post of the unretouched JPG for this photo if you don't mind. Thanks.
