Hello Selen,
What an impressive bird of prey that is quite new to me. Excellent capture showing it in a fine pose and in sharp details and natural colours. Interesting note too!
Many thanks and cheers, Ulla

Hello Selen,
The branches and the busy rainforest BG don't prevent a sharp and detailed view of this Great Black Hawk taken from a fine POV with excellent use of flash in the poor light.
TFS this fine (new for TN?) image,
Cheers,
Ivan

Hello Selen,
What a unique catch! Difficult to find and to photograph, I think. Great close photo!
Beautiful colours and excellent sharp details.
Fantastic POV, pose and composition.
Kind regards,
Peter

Hi Selen. Nature often puts things in are way. This does not distract from the Great Black Hawk. You have captured it well in the jungle. Your picture shows good detail and natural colours. well done TFS.

Hi Selen

What a lovely sight. The branches do not distract from the image because it just matches the natural setting. Nicely sharp and detailed and a lovely pose

You are the queen of flight..or creatures therein..and your above the clouds images are pretty nifty as well..this is a fine one..I see or figure that many in your native country like this type of aviary....quite a few posts in this genre...very well done Selen E!!

Hi Selen,

For the mear fact you’re in the jungle, under a canopy, in difficult lighting conditions, this is just an excellent catch of this stunning looking bird of prey, the detail is superb, and I only wish to get this good, just wonderful.

t.f.s Rick :)

Hi Selen,
Wonderful shot of this Great Black Hawk in its natural domain. Very neat and sharp image with perfect lighting and exposure levels. I like this natural surrounding and the calm posture it presents. Thanks for sharing this fine image.

Selen dostum,
I'm back in Izmir for a couple of days and noticed your fine tele-shot of this splendid hawk specimen, you've succesfully rendered the branches in the foreground OOF by utilizing the largest aperture available to you, selectively focusing on the bird,and the exposure is perfect to glean maximal detail on the dark plumage. Alltogether a product of good expertise, TFS indeed!

Hello Selen,
Branches are everywhere in the jungle:-). I guess the focus is important here and it must be said that the Great black hawk is overall Great. And the Black is technically well done. Finally I hope I wasn't too Hawkish concerning my critique:-).
Well done
Thanks for sharing

There are times when the branches have to be there, or you do not get the shot. I like to see the species and the natural surroundings too.Especially when I have never seen one before.The flash gave you some nice light Selen.
TFS.
Be safe:)

Hi Selen.
What a nice natural scene and picture. Simply amazing bird, expressive pose and glance of the hawk. Exposure and details of all its attractive details are spot on. Busy BG is very natural for your majestic hero too. Bravo. Well done.
