Hi Herb, The Harrier really pops against the BG wish you had some better lighting but you did handle it well.

Harsh light well handled...Good pose..Some artifacts in the BG and maybe some more NR to smooth it out a bit!
Always cool to photograph a male! You handled the strong light well. Eye contact looks good. Would have liked a more dynamic wing position.

Thanks for the comments guys. I reworked the BGD and removed some more noise. :)

I like the repost - background is much better. Love the way the eye stands out. Nice!
