I like the composition Ryan, I think a little lightening might improve the image. Nice capture!

Yeah, it's tough with these black birds sometimes to find a lightness balance. I might do some selective lightening.

Looks just wonderful as is, Ryan. Great perspective on the subject. What did you shoot with?

Catherine, Canon 40D 100-400L at 400mm.

Ryan, I like this. It almost has a studio portrait lighting feel to it. Well done.
