    Hi Chris. Great capture, I would love to get close to a peregrine. The perch looks awesome. I like the unusual pose, with that head turn. I think I would try and make the bird 'stand out' more.

    I wish I could find something like this in my old files! What a gorgeous shot I really like the pose and the lighting, I may be tempted to tease a little more detail from the plumage, wow that's a beautiful shot Chris well done.

    I personally love this image and the pose. It's adorable. The vegetation, rocks and lichen add a lot here, giving us that sense of environment. Great light too!

    Love the light and the unique pose here. Indeed the surroundings are very interesting as well. I don't think it is a photo for the theme though as the bird is perching and not flying, but it is a fantastic image. Well done, Chris.

    Man I would love to have this type of cliff sides to shoot my peregrines on. They are so beautiful and add so much color and interest to the images. The pose looks great and the light angle is right on. Well done

    No worries, mate. The shot as I sad is awesome in all aspects and you aren't the only one who misunderstood the theme. Thanks for posting this beauty.
