Marilyn,

Great portrait shot of this raptor. You must have been very close to get this wonderful shot. The intensity of its gaze is appropriate for the title you chose.   Posted: 12/04/2024 17:10:57

Marilyn, super in every way. To suggest anything to make this better would be absurd. Very well done.   Posted: 12/10/2024 14:31:03

Hi Marilyn, wow, a beautiful image and an unusual work! You did a great job. I like the lighting and details. I am not sure how you edited it: do you enlarge the image? The image seems a little "over polished", a little "unnatural" feel. Thanks for sharing!   Posted: 12/11/2024 17:57:43

Hi Marilyn,
Presenting this raptor in such a close crop has resulted in a very powerful and striking image. The viewer's attention is immediately drawn to the eye, with its intense gaze creating a strong visual connection.

I agree with Xiao that the image shows some signs of over-sharpening. You might consider reducing it in the areas where it's most noticeable, such as the neck feathers.
