Nice banking pose and I like the background colors.

Looks as though it could use some additional sharpening or that it is overall lacking a bit of detail?

Thanks Jim :) I have already sharpened this is how top harrier feathers look like in this light.

Banking pose, BG and eye contact look very good. Some of the blacks on the far wing are blocked and I agree with Jim regarding lack of fine details. Is this a large crop and originally horizontal?

[Danny Laredo]

This is fantastic. Love the light detail pose and eye contact.

[Markus Jais]

Great wing pose and fantastic light. The BG has great colors!

Thanks guys, Axel it isn't a tight crop but it was originally horizontal (can't track in vertical mode!!!) cropped to vert in PS. male specie has soft and pale feathers much more difficult to photograph than the female! Here is how he looks like upclose

I think you are a master of flight photography . Amazing flight shot would appreciate if you could share some tips and techniques of catching birds in flight .

Hi Arash,
All looks excellent on my end. Killer pose and light! The final piece is the very nice complimentary BG! Congrats on this one.
