    I like the light, look-back pose and wish the far wing were higher up. The eye looks noticeably sharper than the plumage.

    I remember this was quite close, took off from a post. These birds are huge I am guessing this was f/5.6 and therefore wings are out of dof with focus on the eye-which is where it should be :)

    Excellent shot Arash! Sharpness looks sspot on to me. In anything would crop a bit off the top.

    Killer head angle and a loverly dorsal view of this young bird. I wish only for a steeper bank with the rear wing nearly vertical :) (I am sure that you do too.) Overall superbly done.

    Great dorsal view Arash, and the eye contact puts this over the top for me. Well captured.

    Great pose with a superb eye contact,
    On my monitor it seems that the eye and beak are oversharpned
