    Certainly is different for an Osprey image (in a good way!). I like the comp and framing by the foliage. I also like the inclusion of blue sky at top. I do wish the face was better lit at left though.

    Very creative Al. really really liked it. excellent use of rule-of-thirds. FG blur is just the right amount. Good call on f-stop. You must have been really close.
