Really neat sighting with a very impressive prey item. Unfortunately the image quality looks off, especially compared to your previous image which was just about perfect.

Great bird and beast. Fabulous colors. It's hard for me to tell about the IQ. I think if you went back to the RAW and brightened the whole image up by 2/3 stop (being careful about the highlights), there might be a lot of good detail to be had.

Stunning birds with that luminescent color. Image is a bit soft so here's hoping you can rescue it.

it's a great frames but unfortunately ruined by poor IQ, it looks out of focus and noisy. it's a pity since the prey is unique as well

I agree with you all for IQ.
