Well captured Andreas.....Great pose and you managed lovely detail on the bird, colours are perfect...Well done....Just wondering if it needs a slight CW rotation.

Thanks Jon , Will and Steve for your kind comments . Much appreciated .
@ Will ... not sure about the CW rotation , as I already took the wing tips and leveled those out .
@ Steve - the FG is already darkened
.... I will try one more more round . Nothing specially done to the shadow created by the head
Cheers Andreas

Wonderful pose, love the low POV. I envy you young guys that can flop on the ground so easily, those were the days. Colors and post processing look spot on. Thank you for sharing, Andreas.

Colours and sharpening are perfect. Good wing pose too. This would look great as a pano with up to half the lower space cropped away.

Good call on suggesting pano Dan.

I really like the pose, processing looks great! I do wish it had a touch less FG though and it looks like it might need a tiny bit of a CW rotation. I like the pano crop suggestion. Nice work!

Thanx folks , for your kind comments .
Regarding the " Pano suggestion " ... I am not sure about that , as it is already in pano format . My idea was to have more FG , rather than a central placement of the subject .
But I will think about moving the subject more central .
Thanx again , Andreas

Agree that this is a beauty and that a pano crop from below after a bit of CW rotation would elevate the image.
