Great timing and a wonderful setting and composure. I really like this image. A good range of tones, I wonder if some of the whites around the neck are just a little hot?

[Stu Bowie]

Hi Chris, you pretty much nailed this all round. Very well timed, and I like the detail and sharpness. Good to see the FE framed between the foliage at the LLC, and the perch on the URC. Well captured.

[Cheryl Arena Molennor]

Gorgeous bird great shot. I like the anticipated look of the landing

[Daniel Cadieux]

Neat landing pose, and I like the perch on corner and distant trees in the opposite one. I agree some whites on the neck seem hot as posted.

All the best for 2012!!

Very nice landing pose with plenty of details. Fantastic shot.

[Sid Garige]

Killer landing pose Chris.

[Robert Holguin]

Superb landing shot. Excellent timing, and composed well.
Well done.

[Chris Kotze]

Thanks everyone it's much appreciated. I will have a look at the whites around the neck and tone it down a bit.

[Kaustubh Deshpande]

Chris, other than the hot spot, everything looks great. Really well composed. Nice wing position that shows the broad powerful wings.

[Nico Steenberg]
