Hi Arno, just love this hovering posture, sharp, and the colours look spot on. The distant BG makes the falcon pop really well, and if anything, I would maybe move him up in the frame a tad.

Like the separation from the background and the dangling talons.

You were there on the right moment.
Frame this and hang it on the wall.

Lovely shot,well sharp and great BG.

[Dudley Watson]

Very well captured Arno ..lovely detail and pose. It was a stunning trip.

[Vivaldo Damilano]

Just love the pose, great BKGD too. Excellent Arno

[Mark Dumbleton]

Excellent stuff Arno! We saw the Lanner this past weekend, but only a quick fly-by!
Great exposure and although light is quite high in the sky, it's still very pleasing!
