great shot with extended talons and nice wing position, the yellow in the eye seems a bit too saturated. Details don't show well at 800 pixels I would like to see this 1024 pixels wide.

Stuart:
I like the composition, curved perched, outstretched legs and talons, sharp with good overall exposure.

Nicely timed.

Cheers

Very nice landing shot. Agree about a bit over saturated.

excellent wing spread, pose, exp., comp., DOF and bird angle. Angle a little too steep...but the pose is so compelling that I dont mind it much.

[Marina Scarr]

Simply a great landing pose here, Stuart. Everything came together nicely with the talons, the wings outstretched and the perch.

[Robert Holguin]

Excellent shot you captured here. Great wing position and the outstretched talons are really amazing. Well done.
