Found this bird on the animal carcass which makes a nice perch for raptors.

Shutter speed 1/640
Aperture F/6.3
ISO 400

C&C welcome.

Lots of detail and nicely exposed. I might tone down the highlights of the ribs a bit and a small head turn would have been great. You must have been nice and close. Well done. Dave

Lovely raptor and pose. Concur re ribs' brightness. Might clone out the white bright spot behind his neck.

Beautiful colour and soft light Ram. You really need a head turn towards you to add interest here. Also if you can I would give more room at the top.
