    Arash:

    that is some giant stick. When I looked at the thumbnail, I thought he was perched!
    Nicely exposed, sharp, very fun capture.

    cheers

    Arash, yeah, the thumbnail looks likes he's perched. The comp is well balanced diagonally through the frame. My first thought is wanting to see the whole branch, but that would mean leaving the Osprey smaller in the frame. Still, an opportunity well used.

    You got him!
    He sure was taking his time showing off and circling around. Strong birds :)
    Mine is just like this one, wings in a diff position.
    It was fun, wasn't it?

    Love it! Normally I would leave more space for the bird to "fly into", but what you've done makes perfect sense, as the branch is half the story here:)

    I'm really enjoying your work here, amazing stuff!!!
