Hi Mark

Maybe a tad too much space on the left especially if you remove your copyright but everything else is spot on. Great light and detail!

Alright Croz. Agree with David about the space. Might just be me, but is there a magenta cast in the whites? Be interesting to see what other folk see.

Looks nice and sharp and a great pose :toast:

Nice capture Mark :smile: agree with Graeme on the whites.There seems to be a slight magenta cast noticeable on the white breast feathers,although it could just be the sun light. Might be worth putting the levels highlight eye dropper on it and giving it a click.

Still waiting for some new mobile images :wink:

Nice work.

What a pleasure to see a Buzzard instead of a kite from Gigrin. And a beautiful shot it is, too. I think your copyright balances the composition nicely! :biggrin:

Great flight shot :toast:

Really is a bit too much empty space to the left Mark :wink:
