A lovely portrait of the hawk. It is as if the hawk posed. And an excellent complimentary bg. Very well done.

Stunning detail and a great pose. I’m not a fan of so much negative space, but that’s just me. It feels like the vertical equivalent of a horizon in the middle with not enough detail in the sky. A strong vignette, or the equivalent in subtle detail, from the right would balance the weight better for me.

Hi David
I agee withDavid on the pose and Diane on taking a little of the right side of the frame. Vary nice looking Hawk. I can not get over the quality of the newer camera and editing software to produce such high quality photographs from a vary small pixel frame. Nice work.

Beautiful portrait of the hawk. Excellent detail.
