    This big boy could be seen in the same spot every morning while I was at Bosque Del Apache. Couldn't get him to show his feet though!

    While I was taking this shot I ran into Doug Brown hand-holding the 800mm! Now that's a serious piece of glass and a serious bird photographer!!

    50D, EF400mm f/5.6L
    Manual mode, f/5.6@1/2000 ISO 200 WB 5100K
    AI Servo autofocus, hh no flash

    Beautiful portrait Kerry,
    The feather detail and color rendition are superb. You have a good head angle and sharp eye...well done...:cool:

    Nice composition and pose. Feather detail is great, but the head is soft probably because focus was on the wing.

    Good image overall, but I agree with David: a focusing error was made in focusing on the shoulder and not the eye. regards~Bill

    Hi Kerry - Love the BG - Some more room at the bottom for the virtual feet, as mentioned the head is a tad soft, more DOF or focussing on the eye required.
    Exposure looks good, colour and detail is very nice.
    Good show.
