Looks fine and I love the dark green BKGR. And to think that I have told everyone that a 300 is too long for Homer :) I brought one a few years ago and never used it.

Love the sharpness and the ready to catch action here. I might try to lighten the image a bit.
Looks good to me, nicely sharp and I like the contrast between the dark brown and white feathers along with the rich gold of the beak and talons. Wish I were there with you!
Sharp, sharp, sharp!!!
Robert, how much of a crop?
Cheers, Jay

Full frame no crop here!
Brilliant and tack sharp . Would lighten the darks a bit .
Love the action and the detail. I think the tight crop works well for this image. I'd try to lighten under the wings a bit to pull some of the detail out.
Great capture.
Matt
