    Another super image Arash! Great pose and I really like the unique angle and inclusion of the perch. Well done.

    Super take off pose and it's nice to see part of the cliff in the image to help tell the story. Nice wing position, and it's nice to see the yellow legs and talons and the amazing feather pattern under the wing.

    Hi Ari, great raised wing position for the take off, and really sharp. Your vertical comp works well.

    Another beautiful Peregrine shot, Arash. Great wing and flight position, like the inclusion of the take-off rock, wonderful detail as usual.

    Another wonderful Peregrine shot. Classic take off from the cliff.

    Could I ask how much you cropped on this image and whether you are running any NR on the dark feathers? Lately when I am increasing the ISO I am selectively sharpening sections so extra noise does not creep into the darker feathers, but always wonder if you do any NR as your subjects always look superb.

    It is a vertical crop from full frame horiz. I did not apply any NR to the feathers as there was no noise.

    Thanks

    I like this one allot Arash. I have one identical to this one of one of the juvies launching from the same perch. Your usual killer techs and that beautiful feather pattern of the adult looks great. Well done!
