Nice pose and eye contact Stuart...exposure looks really good to me but in the repost you left the top of the limb in the upper portion and you probably should not have fooled with the greenery below her tail because it shows it was obviously cloned. I prefer the habitat look in the first post...IMO it does not really detract from the Osprey and the there is enough DOF to blur the BG so it doesn't monopolize the picture. I would leave the first as is....or if I really got ambitious would clone everything out leaving her just sitting on the perch. Really nice shot.....
