    Default Caracara(c)

    I went paragliding on Monday and to try the 1DX in the Gudalajara area. At one of the take off places I met this bird; when it was young the owners found it sick, so they took care of it. Now it is well and free to go, but hangs around enjoying the life on the top of the mountain.

    I like the details, sharpness and tight composition. Well done Lorant.

    Thanks for the comments.

    Adrian. These people fly, so they love and respect other flying creatures....not sure they like mosquitoes though:). In any way, they love birds.

    Just beautiful Lóránt!

    I wonder if it could go a touch darker?

    TFS!
