    Good capture, nice eye contact if i were being highly critical the leg could do with a bit more detail, but good work

    Great BG and very sharp and detailed bird. i think it is a bit bright, toning it down a tad would look nice.
    Excellent comp!

    Wish I was there - I do like these Vulture images of yours Arno. Nice BG and in flight pose. Somewhere between the two for me - in the repost the lines/dark patches in the BG seem too visable.

    Hi Arno, excellent detail throught the vulture, sharp, and I like the swept back wing position. Repost looks good, although I would have only toned down the BG a touch.
