    Ramon lovely light and pastal colors!! I would like to have seen a bit of the eyes, but it certainly is a terrific looking bird and the wing spread is great.

    This is a superb capture, however the eyes are concealed and I think the best way to make this work is by concentrating on the bird's symmetry by rotating the bird so that it is square in the frame. The image will work better that way I think IMHO.

    I am loving the pose even without any view of the eyes. The soft bluish bg is very nice and the lighting looks spot on too me. Well done.

    Hi Ramon

    You capture a very nice full stretch pose in some good light. I think cropping some space off the sides would create a more powerful image.

    Cheers

    Hi Ramon, what a beautiful way to learn you are not in BA! Beautiful image; we are going to Los Pecanes on the 2nd. Sorry we missed you; we will be in BA until the 2nd, and again from 5 - 11 Feb.
    Cheers, Jay
