Head on

I just like the head on view. Something a bit different and a perspective I find difficult to capture and make look good. I like how this image turned out.

Please view larger version for max detail. Thanks so much.

Nest! I don't recall seeing one from this angle before. Very effective.

Yes.. Much greater degree of difficulty head-on, so very well done Ron.
Nice look as the bird breaks to the viewers right, I like it.
Happy Easter

Excellent shot. It resembles a stealth bomber!

The large version is a must see. Another great flight shot Ron. The slight head turn is perfect.

Amazing how streamlined they look from this head on view. I also like seeing the long wing span compared to the body as for me it really displays how they can fly. Nice job in getting this difficult shot Ron, way to go.

raptors always have such intense expressions and you've captured this one beautifully. Nice and sharp with great colours too.
