Really like this one. The nest building material really makes this for me. Well done.

Nice action shot with good detail in the Osprey.

This is a better action shot than the previous version in my opinion because of the enhanced detail of the wings underside. It pops a lot more than the previous image.

Hi Peter. I like this one even better than the last. The raised wings seem to make it feel a bit more dynamic for some reason. My only nit on this one is the bright stick in the bg on the left. I'd be tempted to clone it out as it really draws my eye. I'm not sure if you'd need to remove the reflection of it as well or if it would look ok with it there.

Excellent detail and the eye is really crisp. Well done.

Hi
Thanks for all the comments. Dennis you were right, taking out the stick made for a getter shot.

A great capture and I like the composition of your crop, Peter! The large version is especially nice and has lots of good, sharp detail. You had a really nice opportunity to capture this nesting behavior and certainly made the best of it.
