Hi Jon, I would call this one "snowy weaponry"; the pose is outstanding as is the intensity of the moment. The light is a little harsh but it doesn't bother me because its such a dynamic capture. The snow does appear blue or purplish on my screen (maybe the snow did have a purplish hue), I think that the image would look better if everything was white. I like the soft blue background as well. Excellent capture steve

Very nice action pose! I think I would brighten up this image a little bit to make the whites a little more brilliant.

Terrific flight pose. The eyes and the extended claws tell the story of what this bird is all about. The snow does look a bit of a strange colour but that may be how it was because the white in the bird is excellent.

I love it when they do that. One of the ones we had here this winter would do that after taking off from fence posts (ours would seldom land on the ground), pretty cool to see that foot motion in the viewfinder. Spectacular image all around, ticks all my boxes and then some. The shadows in the eyes do not bother me either, it actually gives some depth to them.

A winner frame for sure, love the dynamic pose with clear view of both talons.Great eye contact, sharp and good whites exposure, The shadows are very subtle here and don't subtract from this excellent frame. I like the tight crop too, I'd run some NR on the BG

Wow!! What a killer frame!! I love the head on stare with both eyes lit well and the hanging legs and talons put this one over the top. Nice looking exposure and details. The square comp looks awesome and is exactly how I would have composed it, tight and in your face details!
The shadow and the blue BG finish this off perfectly. Love to have something like this in my portfolio. Well done

Simply a stunning frame from the head on pose to the wing and feet positions, with the shadow being a nice touch. Not too sure about the colour of the snow, but otherwise absolutely superb.
