The light couldn’t have been better this morning at our wildlife refuge. 29 degrees, clear, and cold.
This Harrier was closer than they usually are, although this is still a crop. Got lots of head movement and eye contact shots, but this one was my favorite.
Specific Feedback Requested
Any comments appreciated. Since this is a crop, would you crop any differently? I tried to not make her centered, with the head looking back into some of the scene.
Wonderful to get that close to one!! Those eyes are electric!
The crop works for me but I could also see taking a bit off the top, largely to equalize with the space at the bottom. My eye sort of wanders off the bird and into the distance at the top.
Wonderful shot of this Harrier. The eyes draw you right into the frame. Nice pose too. I think I agree with Diane that a small crop at the top would keep the eye from moving up. Nicely done, David.
