A Kestrel Lady

[Kiran Poonacha]

Made this image of the female kestrel in a slightly overcast condition. I dont know if I need to give more space on the right.

Spec: 1/1000, F8, -1/3, ISO 400.

Canon 40D+500mm+1.4TC

Great angle, sharpness, eye contact and BG, interesting perch, too. What is the perch? I guess you could give it a bit more room but I like it as is.

[Kiran Poonacha]

Thanks Axel, I guess I will leave it as it is then. the perch is the tip of a termite mound.

[Ilija Dukovski]

Like it very much, Axel said it all, I'll just add
I love the color composition here too.
Congrats!

[Morkel Erasmus]

nothing wrong with this. ample space, great detail and sharpness! super shot sir!

[Leo Berzins]

Nice pose, sharpness and lighting. I like the complementary earthy tones of the bird, perch and background and the alignment of the tail with the edge of the mound.
A great image.

[Brian Barcelos]

Awesome perch, great pose with a perfect head turn, and nice even light. I wouldn't add any canvas on the right.

[Ryan Lambert]

Very nice image here Kiran, good colour, sharp, reflection in the eye and a super perch, nothing to fault at all.

[Kaustubh Deshpande]

Kiran...no space needed whatsover. Its perfect as is. Love the tail being parallel to the mound edge. You made the best of the overcast conditions. Exposure is spot on.

[Ramon M. Casares]

Kiran, I would leave the comp as is. You are turning out some great images, and this is no exception. Pin sharp, great pose, and love the overall colours in this.

I like comp as is. I like the feather detail and the eye contact.

That perch is just excellent, very complimentary to the bird. The pose, HT and BG are excellent as well! Congrats on a fine image
