I really like the HA and the calling pose in this one Chris. Comp looks good too but it needs some NR to remove the heavy texture in the BG. Well done

[Jonathan Ashton]

What a beauty love the colours and the composition, in a perfeect world the right foot would be a little further forward but apart form that excellent. I thik the background would benefit from a little surface blur or noise reduction.

[William Dickson]

Well done Chris. Love the details and calling pose. Lovely looking bird.

Hi Chris, lovely calling pose with the open beak, and I like how the pose follows the line of the top of the rock. Yes to some NR on the BG.

[christopher galeski]

Thanks for looking and comments,agree on NR to the BG,did not notice till I uploaded,and it is not as sharp as the original.Thanks again.

Like everything about this image especially the quality of light, Christopher. Wonderful calling pose with raised foot. Stu has already pointed out the BG noise.
