    Default Lanner Falcon - Quick Turn

    Hi There

    Shot of a Lanner Falcon named "Charlie Brown" displaying at the HCT earlier today. It was a great day for flying and for photos as the sun was shining and my MKIII was performing very well... All in all a good day.. and a wild Red Kite as an added bonus.

    Very cool image with a fantastic pose, John. I would like to see it more to the right in the frame with a bit more room on the bottom.

    It is a unique pose....they're like contortionists. I'd want to see Jim's composition as well. Is there just a touch of noise in the BG?

    Hey John, You have out-done yourself with this fantastic image. With the even blue sky, you could put him wherever you want to. I love it right where it is.

    This is a little more what I had in mind but after seeing it I don't think it matters.......it's such an impressive image that I really don't notice where it is.

    John, the bird is fantastic. Fortunately, with a lbue sky background,you can add canvas wherever you choose. I am fine with as posted since the bird ROCKS!!!!
