Sharp with a good expoosure but BKGR less than ideal. Biggest flaw is the foreground/background line through the bird's head. I crop from the bottom would tighten things up a bit.
Where are you from and where was the image created?
Later and love, artie

Hey Jay, welcome to BPN. This is a whole bunch differant than Photo Net. These guys can be brutal but their critiques are right on and you have a steep learning curve. If you think their wrong go and look at their portfolios. It makes you wanna throw your camera in the trash sometimes.:)
Brutal, but kind and gentle.. later and love, artie

Hey both, thanks for the comments and feedbacks. I have absolutely no issues at all with any direct and honest critiques as that is precisely what I am looking for when I decided to join this forum. I am a newbie who is only 6 months into photography, not to mention nature photography. :)
Artie, I am from Singapore in Asia and this bird was taken from a fish farm in neighboring country Malaysia. 5 to 6 ospreys regularly come to fish at the farm everyday. Thanks again for the guidance.
