    The moss was exiting the frame so I removed the end of it.

    Hi Cheryl, I like how the image is stretched across the frame. Well exposed on the Osprey especially on the underwings, sharp, and good call on trimming the nest material. A bit of separation between the head and far wing would have been first prize.

    Love the comp, the building material and the exposure. The bits of clouds in the bg add a whole lot. Underwing detail is nice. Very nice work.

    Beautiful image that's very nicely composed in the frame.

    The trailing vegetation adds a lot of interest to the flight shot.

    Love the angle and the stick/nesting material. Good call on removing part of it. Your comp works well and I like the variation in the sky.

    Cheryl, excellent composition....loved the moss. you nailed the bird at the perfect angle. A round of USM on the bird might help. Well done.

    Great BIF picture, Cheryl. The nice looking nesting material puts it over the to. A very happy picture.

    Nice points all round . Great image too . A little head separation would have put it over the top . But the best one was the title . Just loved it .
