Thanks David! The carcasses are about 30m away. The head turn? Luck

Love the outstreached wings. The bird is nice and sharp with very good detail. The retouching looks great. Well done.

Def. something you don't want to be the center of attention to. Powerful, head on image, outstretched legs, symmetry in tail and wings, all around nice. Just for my education, did you sway the missing feathers from the other side of the same image (my guess) or from another frame?
Well done,
Cheers

Thanks Randy. Yes I swayed the missing tips from the other wing.

Awesome Chris, really enjoying your vulture images. I like this one, exposure, the head turn and of course the incoming pose. I'd be inclined to smooth out or stamp the whitish "blob" at top of tree above head... Wonderful... I'd love to be in that hide!

Excellent Image. Love the claws and sharp eye.
I would increase the vibrance a little and reduce the blues to make it much better.

You are nailing the vulutre shots Chris!
Very nice and one of my favourites from you because of the background and the wingspread. I can feel the warmth due to the heat shimmer in the trees in the back, it give the image a great impact. Pose, exposure and details look good too.
I would also reduce the blues and raise the temperature just a tad.

Whoa this is high impact! What a wingspread. I love the drooping neck and head angle. Super nice BG too. I keep seeing a sleeping owl's face at the neck's base (a closed eye on each side, plus the "owl's" head above - maybe it's just me being weird here).
