    Bright, high sun is preoblematic but you did fairly well. Was the bird sedated? What was it sitting on? It looks quite worn.

    I think you cropped too tight here....There is detail and I am sure a looser crop would enhance the IQ. How did you get so close Paul...

    Thanks all...comments appreciated.
    Artie: It was up on the pole at the end of the pier...so I was looking at steep angle.
    David: Harsh light...yes, typical at this time of the day.
    William: Yes...it is a crop from a larger section of the Osprey...just wanted to get the head, but yes, IQ is better before the crop. Cheers.
