Black Vulture Portrait

[Sid Garige]

D300, 200-400mm VR
F8 1/560
at Alafia Banks with James

[Tony Whitehead]

Good detail in the dark plumage, Sid. Maybe a little more sharpening on the head to make the most of the detail there. Pose and HA are great. A version cropping from below to remove the wing and darker area low in the BG may be an option.

Great exposure and sharpness. My inclination would have been to crop more off the right and leave more room on the right. JR

[Richard Lovison]

I like the composition as presented. The pose, combination of background and subject colors and soft contrast makes it for me. I agree with Tony... maybe a bit more sharpening around the head. Nicely done.

Lovely exposure here, great details, good BG, congrats...

[Markus Jais]

Great portrait. Very good exposure. The head turn is great. Maybe a little cropping from the right.
Would also look good in B&W, I think.

[James Shadle]

Very nice exposure, details holding up well in even the very darkest areas.
What do you think of this composition?

It was great having you out with me(as always).
