Reviewing old files and found this flight image of an Osprey at Newport California's Back Bay.

Raw to LR3 to CS5. Sharpened and NR in CS5. I also added some canvas to the left side.

Nice position to the camera and the light; good use of the frame.

nice light, good wingspread and a head turn to boot. Wouldn't change a thing

The lighting on the face is excellent here Harry. This pose gives me the feeling he's scanning for fish and will make a dive anytime.

Very much like the pose you've captured here Skip, and the nicely illuminated eye!
