Shot a bunch of these guys today but this shot turned out the best. The lighting was pretty harsh today but this angle exposed him pretty well and I'm very pleased with the quality of this shot especially. I cropped this image a little bit to get rid of a bad rock and that's why it's kind of close on the left. Do you guys think the crop composition is good for this shot?

Sharp with a decent composition. The trick would have been to move well to your left to have your shadow pointed at the bird ...
