Simply Stunning Manos. Hungary seems like a really good place to go. Did you go on a specific tour ?

[Gus Cobos]

Nicely done Manos,
I like the pose and the pastel colors of the background which compliments your bird so well...:cool:

This is truly stunning. One of the prettiest images of a kestral that I have see, Love the BG and it's beautiful color. Excellent detail and very sharp. I would be tempted to crop just a little from the top if it were mine. Love this captue Manos and many thanks for sharing.

I'd be tempted to have the bird placed higher in the frame. Beautiful bird and it is beautifully photographed. There is small streak at right of perch and another at the wingtip (rain drops?) that could be cloned out.

Super sweet light Manos, I love the pose and the perch but not sure about the composition, too much room at the top. Excellent all around Manos

Fantastic work, Manos, the background is cream and peaches, and the soft light makes for a very attractive image. you could indeed crop a bit for web presentation, but for printing the space would fine to my taste.
