Thought I'd share a decent-quality version of my WPOTY image with the BPN community. The one on the Natural History Museum website is fairly low res. This is one of the images I took of a family of Peregrine Falcons during a week I spent with them in 2009. Interestingly enough, Jim Neiger was there with me. When I first captured this image, I didn't think much of it. I had been hoping for better skies. But when I got back to Albuquerque, the photo started to grow on me. I worked it over in PS, and was pretty pleased with the results. I decided to enter it in the BBC competition, and was fortunate to get runner-up honors in the Animal Portraits category.
I'd like to thank everyone at BPN for helping to make me a better photographer!
