    Very nice John. I like the pose..I may try a little more sharpening, especially on the head.

    Happy holidays.

    Very nice alert look-back pose. I like the high key presentation. Personal preference, but sometimes a 1px border helps on a shot like this.

    Nice pose and perch, although personally I'd lose the small twig sticking out. Maybe a touch lighter on the midtones plus a bit more saturation? Nicely balanced composition.

    Hi John, great high key finish to this image, and what a lovely alert pose you have captured. Great show of the talons.

    pretty nice portrait of the RTH given the condition! I like the view of those sharp talons and the head turn
