Trying for the obvious "repeating parallel lines" comp because power of subject can be augmented through--- you guessed it-- repetition of line or suggested line. I do wish his right wing were a bit more forward, and somewhere in the archives I probably have a shot like that, I'll get around to finding that someday.....someday.....someday................... . .. . . fade . . .
Anyways-- the plants are pretty interesting, no? I have no idea what they are, but the second I saw them a flood of ideas sprung forth upon my wandering brain. From what I can tell, those seed pods split open in the spring and let forth a cascade of these very tiny teency seeds. I saved a bunch and am hoping to grow my own photoprops next year. For now I call them "Hawk-berries"
Plants were spaced going off into the distance maybe 30 feet to 35 feet.
One thing becomes self evident when you watch enough redtail hawk action after awhile--they love to fly! They really, really, love flying. And how they can fly straight through a heavily wooded area and not hit anything is completely amazing.

I'm sorry but I can't find the original tiff so I don't have the data real handy other than it was a 600/4 and I think the MarkIII.
