I was very lucky to have been able to take this photo this weekend. The Osprey had been flying around for awhile when I say him go into his dive mode. What a thrill! Please give any and all feedback. Your comments are very helpful.

The picture is magnificent. You were in place to capture an amazing event. The left wing is a little blurry but other than that it is brilliant.

Nice capture Carlette. Not an easy event to capture that is for sure. To me it looks like the brightness of the entire image could be reduced just a little as the colors seem to be washed out by the bright lighting conditions. I keep looking at the comp wondering if a horizontal would work better, but then I think this works OK too. Well done getting this shot.
