Beautiful banking pose, Karl. Given the brightness of the harrier compared with the background, for a more realistic interpretation, I’d probably brighten at least the grass. However, I like this as posted because it really makes the harrier pop and there’s enough light on the background to make it work. Your title is kind of fun-it could be interpreted either way. I could see a vole with its bow and arrow out hunting harriers.
Terrific image Karl, really like the fanned tail and spread wings. Really shows off the agility of these birds while on the hunt. All looks good to me.
