Hey Stuart,
I love ospreys and this pose is very good! White look a touch bright but looking a the specs.....could have been something in PP'ing. I would consider a vert crop as I generally prefer them tighter.....but you will get debate there. Nicely done overall!

[Dumay de Boulle]

To crop this and find a great comp is not easy...But i like the image and the eye is nicely visible

I prefer the vert....but let's see how others feel! Nice job with the repost!

Excellent capture of a high-contrast bird in flight.

[Dave Leroy]

Nice timing to catch bird right at touch down.

Of the two I prefer the first, although my preference would be a bit off right and add a tad to top from wind tip.

Nicely exposed and wing span looks excellent.

Original is better. Vertical is too tight. Great landing.

[Joe Senzatimore]

Shot is beautiful. Great timing. I think the repost is a bit tight.

[Pieter de Waal]

Hi Stuart, like the vertival, lovely wingspread , landing action and great eye.
