A female of this beautiful falcon in flight. The day was overcast but I love to photograph flights under such conditions because you have to bring your gear and your technical skills to the edge in order to have a nice result. I am trying to go manual and overcast days are great for get practice. Cropped to vertical, very, very slight levels adjustments. BG noise reduction and selective sharpening
C&C are highly apreciated
Hi Juan,
Love the position, angle and eye contact. That tail fanning out is stunning. Because of the brighter BG.........you may want to lighten the eye a bit to give more impact. I always shoot manual...welcome to thwe club! Very nicely done!
Stunning image Juan and the fanned tail is just awesome. I photographed these birds for weeks but never captured anything as lovely as this image. Thanks for sharing Juan.
Spectacular on all counts as noted above. Lightening the eye a bit and the face even less might work.
