Darn that's a lovely shot ! .....I'd go to all lengths to get a crack at this species at eye level, very inspirational photography Christopher
Not sure about the leaves above, but I could certainly live with them in the shot, the light and color is superb
Lovley shot! LOVE the leaves at the top!
Very well done. I really like the nice alert pose and exposure with all the details in the whites.
Very cool Chris. Nice exposure, HA and details. Those talons are impressive. Would love to photograph this bird.
That is one great portait Christopher.
Great BG, head turn and eye contact. Would like to see it without the leaves for comparision.
Hi Chris, great comp, leaves included, and I like the pose from the falcon. Well exposed with good detail, and love the yellow on his face. Well captured.
A totally beautiful and wonderful image. Colorful, great bird, pose, background. Love the leaves. I hope you make this into a print.
Marvelous portrait. Great composition of great bird with nice pose. Beautiful bg and light. I also like the leaves .
Very nice...soft details, clean BG and nice pose. I am liking those leaves on top. Do you have any more room on top to add? a tad more will make it better, I think.
This is a very attractive photo of about the coolest raptor there is.
Soft light, nice close up and I like the foliage above.
