Red Kite

1D200, 600mm f4 is, 1/2000s, f4, iso 400

I gave up on the new mac for a while and went off to take some photos. I got rather too close, hence the cropped wings. I only managed a few frames, but hope to meet him again!

LARGER VERSION

Hope you meet him again too.

Drop me a line re. the mac probs if you want - I've been through them before and lived .. it's worth persevering.

Brilliant shot Ian, I think the comp works well and the eye contact is great.

Love the stare and the light is very nice,the composition is great as the cropped wings don't bother me,hope you get mac sorted

Great eyes and comp as it is I think; no problem with the wings for me.

The head and the eyes take my attention at once.
no problem with the wings.

Hi


Lovely shot Ian great frame filler and a mean stare

Very nice Ian, you still growing

Danny

That'll do.. something different for the species and so works for me.

Brett

Nice to see a different take/location on these - good one Ian.

Hi Ian

I would probabaly crop much tighter to increase the focus on the head, lovely image in great light

Ian

Nice shot with good eye contact. Its annoying when your too close...but sometime you can get a shot like this which is grrreat.
