Excellent choice of the pano crop. I really like the BG colors as well.
Great pose, details, eye contact and BG. The crop works very well but I would prefer no or a smaller frame. Keep them coming!
Beautiful Keith! that BG is superb. Was this made from the hide?
Thanks guys and gals. Arthur, made a selection of the bird and used smart sharpen on selection but not on the eye in particular.
Vincent , yes at the Giants castle hide, go there every year. This year had fly byes of the braded vulture, cape vultures, jackal buzzards, and black eagle. At times buffer on camera could not keep up.
Very majestic. Love that BG!
Sweet opportunity here Keith and well used;)
