    Good to see this. It looks very much like our Golden Eagles except the color.

    This guy looks quite majestic. I like the angle, head angle and BG (except for the yellowish area in the lower left) and could also see it as vertical crop. I would give it a bit more room at the bottom.

    Thanks for all the comments!

    Nevil this was taken at Giants Castle in South Africa. This beauty landed right in front of the hide.

    Just spent 3 days in Karoo NP looking for these, not a sight, even in the sky.

    At least I now know what one looks like!

    Liked the BG a lot...and the pose. Only suggestion is to tone down the perch a bit. Awesome details in the blacks.

    Thanks everyone for comments and suggestions. Loukie, it was quite co-operative but did not hang around long enough!
