    Awesome portrait! Great light and exposure control, lovely colours and pose. Composition looks spot on to me.

    Sid, a beautiful portrait, great BG. Excellent exposure and detail. I am not sure how I feel about the prey still on the beak, otherwise very well done as usual.

    Super pose, well exposed, and I like how we can see the left overs on the beak.

    Amazing portrait, Sid. Everything is just spot on. Probably the best Osprey portrait I've ever seen.

    Lovely portrait and a good looking bird.

    I really like the light angle and how the bits of shadow add nice depth to all the white feathers.

    Sid, another stunning portrait from you...details, exp., sharpness, IQ...perfection, I'd say. What a like a lot is the gradient BG. Very well done.

    Killer portrait of this osprey, Sid. Love seeing the blood on his beak from his dinner. You did a great job with exposure and composition here. When cropping a portrait such as this, I am not always sure how to go and this gives me some insight.
