Hallo Peter,
Goede scherpte, kleuren,..
Ben je zeker dat dit een Crested Caraca is?
Heb die ooit eens gefotografeerd in o.a. De Beekse Bergen en mijn euro viel niet...
Goed gedaan en bedankt

Hello Peter,
This is a wonderful image of a beautiful species. You have captured sharp details in the plummage and great colors, I like the golds of the neck. Thank you for sharing this superb image Peter.

Hallo Peter
Shame. This Crested Caracara looks as he has just been made fun of and don’t really know how to handle the situation. He looks heart broken, and I cannot help to feel sorry for him. It is such a lovely bird with beautiful feathers. I just love his facial expression. This is an excellent close up. An outstanding photograph, well presented. Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed looking at it.
Kind regards

Hello Peter,
Superb capture of the Crested Caracara in a fine pose, with good sharpness and from an excellent POV. Sometimes we have to take the opportunity when it comes, even if it means including man-made objects, like the bridge rail that this caracara is on. I mean if this were on a natural object this shot would have been close to perfect. As it is, IMHO it is excellent.
TFS,
Ivan

Hi Peter

A very beautiful capture from you...and i think i can say it's a very intimate one, too.
The caracara here seems absolutely undisturbed by your presence and following something completely different with its eyes. This fact actually makes the shot so natural and "free", perhaps sometimes more valuable than the shots with a direct eye-contact.
Other than that, the bird is presented with very nice sharp details, good colors and in an excellent DOF.

Bravo and TFS

Hi Peter,
The caracara has excellent DOF, detail, color, and exposure. It's well composed and the F/5.6 has blurred the BG well, isolating em' in the frame very well :)
Well done!
