    Nice pose and HA. Looks like you could go a little brighter on the EXP to get a bit more details in the black wings.

    Beautiful pose and HA, agree with Clemens! Is this a large crop? I am seeing a halo and lack of detail. TFS

    Love the pose! There's definitely some room to go brighter. I'd selectively lighten the iris to bring out the red in it. Was this a significant crop? I'm not seeing a lot of fine feather detail.

    Thanks everyone for your critiques. It's a huge crop, what you see is 25% of the original file. The raw file is 2/3EV underexposed, so when I tried to get more detail on the black feathers, the noise raised.

    Excellent pose and dorsal view but I am with Doug, it is missing the fine details due to huge crop.

    In addition to all of the above excellent comments the sharpest focus is on the back and the wings. Love the banking pose however.
