The opportunity to get a shot like this is incredibly rare. And you did a fantastic job of grabbing it. Your kung fu is very strong!

Dramatic! Top notch capture.
The sad thing for me is that there are lots of pictures of birds of prey on this site where people have simply gone to a zoo or bird park and they've won ribbons for it. Your picture is a thousand times more satisfying, and yet where will it finish?
Let's hope on the front page - 10 |
