Dumay,
This is superb. How did you get so close to him? Excellent portrait. great light, great BG and I like his eyelid casting a shadow on his eye,

Very nice close up. I kind of wish there was a bit more at the bottom but this is lovely as presented. I might boost the contrast just a hair if it were mine. I see a very faint halo on the neck. Great job getting so close and capturing such a sharp image with lots of details.![]()
How could you get so close to be able to get a head shot with 150mm ?:eek:
Lovely portrait and it looks so clean whic is not what I would have expected.
I like the angle of the head.
Looking forward to your reply on how you were able to get so close.

Its a 1000% crop...Just JokingSorry I forgot to say that it is a bird one of our Rangers flies for exhibitions for the guests. He brought it around yesterday but wasn't willing to fly him for me...He said I can come to there lodge and I could get some take off and flight images.
Thanks for the idea on contrast Denise, but I cant pick up the haloReposted with more contrast
Superb IQ mate, and this is tack, tack sharp. The detail around the eye and beak is amazing. Cool colours in the BG too. An opportunity well used mate.
Dumay, The repost looks great, I do see the halo but it is very faint and not worth worrying about.![]()
A real beauty Dumay! I like the IQ, sharpness and details. The repost is an improvement.
Dumay like the 1000 percent cropExcellent close-up Bud TFS
