I might keep, but would repair the wing tip and show more habitat if you have it. IMO pictures with this type of environment should show more of it, just seems tight all around. Thanks for asking and love the action and two for the price of one.
Hi Stuart I like the re post with a little more of the nest showing, good !!!
I think you did well with the exposure and those birds are difficult unless we have a solid overcast ... then we loose the pretty blue bg !!! Would try getting a little more texture in the whites, particularly the bird's right wing .... keeper in my book and a good one !!!
Hi Stuart, The repost is better due to you not clipping the wings and giving the subject some room. Would have preferred the flying Ospreys head not merging with the wing since it takes some study to find the beak. I also would have preferred more interaction between the two birds...
overall i think its a good shot, agree with Dave that the beak is hard to pick out but i think that is just pure bad luck that the beak is blended with a dark feather.
Having both birds in frame and an excellent wing position in my opinion make this something we can look over
all in all i would be happy with it and wouldnt consider the delete key on this one
Nice capture Stuart...great wing position and detail...like the habitat aspect and you could probably open it a little more with the wings so dominant...keeper for sure
