this is really fine action shot Stephen. i would sure love to see larger version with bit of space added on right and up-down giving it nice freedom of flight

+1 on space. Great claws, concentration, exposure of the underwing.

[Nico Steenberg]

Super timing and IQ. You have nailed the exposure. I like the suggestion on the comp :)

[Haim Ziv]

Great pose and very beautiful done. I know for sure how difficulty it's to make it. Did you took it from a small boat?

[Doug Brown]

Excellent sharpness and a super pose! Those talons are awesome! I agree with the crop suggestion, and only wish we could see the eye a little better.

Amazing timing! Loved the light & pose!
