Hi Julie,

Well done on the capture and composition.

Mike

Such a cool shot even if a little soft on the focus. I love those curved talons ready to land. Beautiful capture, well done.

Bonjour Julie,
I know because I tried, these are very difficult shot to make. Congratulations!

It's a great capture, but it's a bit overexposed and the head is not perfect in focus!
Why didn't you do some kinf of postproduction to get better focus or light?
Please have a look at my WS.
