    Great job. I love the wing position, BG, and sharpness. Where was this taken?

    Not much else to say Kiran. Just an all around killer image. Impressive maximum wingspread, and I like the claws just peeking out

    What an awesome pose and so, so sharp on the eye. Plus a sweet BKGR. Bummer about the one misplaced primary on the far wing.
