    Kiran, terrific moment...the eye and the open bill add to the drama. judging by DOF, this looks like a big crop...but details have held up quite well.

    Awesome behavior shot! Love that raised talon, open bill, your low angle and the great level of detail and IQ.

    Thanks KD, its about 70% of the original. I did selective sharping on the bird in front and the angle helped.

    Kiran, excellent job in creating the DOF...when I looked at it...I thought the DOF does not look like a wide-open shot.

    Kiran, I like the face to face perspective and the wing details are great. Great behavior you have captured, I like the open beak and raised talon too.

    Great capture Kiran! Nice action and I love that crazed look in the facing bird. I would wish for the strong brown oof vegetation in the foreground center area to not be there.

    Killer framing and great moment captured but the image does not exhibit the usual crispness that we come to expect from you. Priceless look on the face of the back bird as noted.

    excellent light and interactions, love the angle. it appears a bit contrasty on my screen but the details look nice and sharp to me.

    Awesome image! Love the action captured. The raised claw and the shadow of it cast on the bird on the right makes this image for me. Details look great from here. Another winner, Kiran.

    Kiranbhai, love the pose of the back bird - open beak, visible tongue, and the foot ready to attack. I do like the detail of the outspread wing of the nearer bird, and slightly more eye contact would have been first prize. Still, well captured.
