Hi to all
Thanks for looking and comments.

Asad:
A powerful looking raptor, with interesting framing of the head by the near wing. The eye and head look sharp.
I find my attention wandering off into the background to try and make sense of it. I am guessing there was a large ridge behind the bird, with another much further away at the top.

As above, the head and eye are sharp. I like the head position. If mine I would have cropped with the head a little off center - maybe a bit more canvas to the left of the eagle?
Also, for the amount of action (landing or taking off?), I think I would have gone with a higher shutter speed.
Beautiful bird, nice catch.

Hi Asad - It looks like you climbed a mountain to get this awesome image. You've captured one intense looking raptor here. Well done!
