    Hi, Giulio. Nice blend of color and B&W; if it were mine, I might punch the colors just a bit in the hawk(?) to give the image a bit more "pop". That bush almost looks to small/fragile to support the bird...I like the vignette you added to the image...nice control of the DOF. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

    Beautiful composition, Giulio. I too agree the blend of B&W and color is very nice. Another vote to add a bit more punch to the color. Excellent processing and TFS. Looking forward to more...

    Thanks John. The bird is a white-tail eagle

    Giulio, I like everything about this one! You did a great job with the image design. If it were mine I might try to add a tiny bit more detail to the perchand evict the dark box or tone it down. Lovely BG and perch!

    Giulio, I like the black and white/ color treatment. This looks like a scene following an apocalyptic event. I hope to see more of your work here in OOTB

    Beautiful pose and treatment, Giulio. There is a tiny bit of brown from the perch between the eagles talons that I might desaturate. Amazingly powerful statement. Well done!

    The position of the bird on that tree it perfect--couldn't have asked for better placement. Excellent dof. Personally, I'm not fond of images that combine color with B&W, so I won't comment on that. Someone suggested punching up the colors a bit, and I agree. Excellent shot!
