Would make a nice pano with some off the top. The scattered feathers add to the action. TFS

Powerful image, pin sharp, technically beautifully executed. I like the way in which the background fades away. I would prefer more of a pano crop.

Good pose on the bird. Nice and sharp. The prey item is always a bonus.

The subject is well exposed and detailed, I think the carnage tells the story! I quite like the composition but I have to agree there does appear to be a lot of blue sky.

Water not sky :)

ps: and yes, a bit too much.
