[Randy Rimland]

Shot on Lake Norman NC from a boat last week
D300s,300vr + 1.4tc,f/5.6,1/1600,iso640,ev=-.3
I did clone out the nest below and his mate since her head was turned away
USM and some levels adjustment in PP

This is absolutely super Randy. It's the image of an Osprey everyone wants and you got it! The detail is great as is the lighting. You could tone down the highlights each side of the head, but for me this is a small point.

Good catch Randy. Good exposure, framing, and color. Looks pretty sharp.

Nice one Randy, it's well lit, nicely composed and well taken!!

Nice job Randy, congratulations on this one! The only suggestion I would have is to saturate the blue sky a bit more. Very nice!
