    I captured this image yesterday at a Osprey nest site in a urban area. The vantage point is from the fifth floor of a parking garage. The nest is on a platform on top of a utility pole. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

    A splendid scene, the eyes are like that of a chameleon, one looking forward the other elsewhere. I like the nest detail.
    On the technical side the lens shows a little need for a stop down? Perhaps too fussy and the glow adds something....

    They have returned to "your spot"! Great eye level view from that parking lot!
    Nice direct gaze.
    The nest is a bit messy but I think you have cropped it well so it doesn't feel too heavy at the bottom.

    Looks like a well used nest. Nice pose and background. Framing is right on for me.
