An image from my recent trip to Giants Castle. I often try a wider angle to include some of the magnificent mountain backgrounds. I have recently struggled with a yellow-green cast in my posts. I have done some research on colour shifts on the net, and I hope this looks better. Your comments will be greatly appreciated:)
Great idea to go for a wide crop since the BG is wonderful. Details on the bird look good, too. The top of the wings is a bit overexposed and I think there is still some color cast. I'm wondering why the area around the wing tips looks greenish.
I agree with Axel, there's still a slight yellowish color cast, besides that PP detail, the comp, detail, light, BG and impact are stunning! Congratulations!
I like the incoming pose with the details in the flight feathers. The tail angle controlling the turn is lovely - these birds are such magnificent fliers and this captures it well. BG is great. I am seeing the greenish haze around the wing tips that Axels mentioned.

I'm with Fabs......great bird but a priceless BG. I think this is one that needs to be seen in a large wall size to truly appreciate its beauty. Excellent.
Whoa; mountains that look like sky. This image has it all.
