    Congratulations!! Dan, and what a unique pose. Was this just after takeoff? Love the soft light and nice display of individual feathers.

    Very cool pose with upper and lower wing detail, great HA , haunched shoulders/back and fully stretched forward facing wings and spread tail. Perfect EXP, details and eye contact. All with a killer BG and composition. Congrats. TFS

    I like this dive pose for sure along with a soft light BG. Also, the air under the back feathers and fanned tail!

    Dan, This osprey is on a mission, nice angle and details, I might take some contrast out of the BG it might make the bird pop a bit more.
