    Default Peregrine Landing...

    From yesterday morning, a pretty adult male peregrine falcon landing on a branch...

    Nikon D5, 600/4E, f/4, 1/2500 sec, ISO 3200, on monopod on a typical June Gloom cloudy weather, processed in C1Pro + PS CC

    Pretty much perfect... Love this canvas overall and the details and colors take it over the top. TFS

    sweet pose and perch Kambiz, I really like this perch. sharp with great details, it's shame this handsome male is banded on both feet. I got many shots of her which also unfortunately show the bands....

    Lovely looking pose on this beautiful bird...Great perch and BG. I would clone out the bands.

    Thank you so much David, Arash, and Will for your comments...

    Yes, those bands are unfortunate and could probably be cloned out, but I think/hope it is for their own benefit for tracking and protection...

    Fantastic sharpness, beautifully processed. I really like that take off pose - what a real shame about the bands as everything else is nigh on perfect

    Very nice, bands don't bother me at all, love the tail feathers.

    Looking really good. Love that background. Nice pose and perch. I don't think i have ever seen one on here with bands.

    Striking image. I didn't even notice the bands at first. The sharpness and pose are awesome, and the colors of the bird work really well with those of the background. Nice!

    BG is stunning. Makes the image for me.
    Fanned tail looks great.
    I would burn/ reduce brightness of the white area to the right of falcon as I find it pulls my eye away.
    I would clone out that white speck near RUC.
    It looks like you did some NR on the perch. I would remove the NR to the perch because it makes it look unnaturally smooth.
    And finally, did you know you can post your image larger? Always helps to have a bigger image for critiques as my eyes are getting older and older!
