    James;

    Very nice dorsal view, well exposed, great eye, sharp. I like the diagonal formed by the wings, which helps give enough room in front of the birds head.
    I have a sense of a very faint sharpening halo visible around the tail. It could just be a cloud back there?

    I enjoy your raptors.

    Cheers

    Randy

    Great comp and eye contact. Exposure is perfect, we can see the details in the white patch on the tail. Sun angle was right there for you. Beautiful image.
