lesser yellow-headed vulture

[Lorant Voros]

Overcast days in Yucatan, but still some fun for photos. I replaced my flash as I dropped my old one into the lagoon:)...didn't like the salt water. Here is a portrait of this vulture...comments are welcome.

Lovely portrait. The high key image goes well with the color of the bird.

Very nice! I wonder if the pupil should be darkened a bit. The feather texture at the bottom of the frame is very interesting and makes a good lead-in. Is there a little more canvas there? I'd like to see a bit more of it -- it feels a little too cut off. But of course I don't know what was just below it.
