Apart from the fact that I have had major internet connection problems over the last couple of weeks, the only birds I seem to shoot lately are kestrels. I'm not complaining mind you!

Hi Tony,

Lovely pose and colours on the Kestrel, although I feel the BG could do with toning down a tad.

Looks to have been difficult lighting to deal with Tony, but a good result, might look better a tad darker? Agree with Rob re the bg
