    fly by harrier looks my way at Bosque last Fall. Gail B. and I were driving the North loop and spotted Doug Brown up ahead and already shooting a grey ghost. However, this little lady down the road was more cooperative to me.

    Looks pretty **** good to me Ann, great banking pose and head turn. Can't believe you've hung onto this one for so long!

    Beautiful harrier! I particularly like the head angle and far wing. Perhaps a touch more below and in front to help loosen the comp would be good. There is also a faint clone mark halfway between the tail and left edge. Apart from that mark that is a very nice BG!

    Pretty darn good. Beautiful bird, nicely shown. I agree with Daniel maybe more room below and in front. A really fine image, thank you for sharing.

    nice shot of the juvi, with a nice top side bank. I wish the near wing was stretched a bit more but would take this as well. The juvenile plumage is too muted on my screen, I'd add some warmth and saturation

    I really like the placement in the frame.. I would not add an inch.
    This is superb. I would love to have it.

    Love, love the BG.
    Nice and sharp.
    Agree with Daniel on a touch more room at the bottom.
    I too, wish the lower wing was fully extended but that is a really minor nit,

    Don't know the colours of these young birds but this is a very nice image. Warming it up a touch would should it even better.

    Sweet harrier frame. Looks lovely to me as is, although the comments on the color are probably right. This could also make a handsome vertical, with some canvas added below. Any way you cut it, its a fine frame (to have been hidden from us for so long).

    Nice frame. Always like the dorsal view flight shots like this. Nice background.

    I like the pose, composition, eye contact and complimentary BG. I could see a little more room added on the bottom as well. Very nice image Ann.

    A beauty, Ann. Love all the subtle / soft highlights in the feathers. Also like the deep richness of the clearly defined darker feathers. Excellent head turn.
