Hi Joe,
A beautiful capture indeed...I like the feather details with the raised wing tips, adding grace to this great fisherman. The sharp eye and head angle are good, and the diffused background compliments him quite well...I might suggest setting you setting your white and black points in order to give it a tad more contrast...looking forward to your next one...:cool:

Hi Joe - Like this a lot - might consider adding some sharpening to the head/eye area.
Like the flight pose and the HA / Eye contact.
Good show :)
