The expression of this Eagle is stunning. The bird looks as if in thoughts. The eye seems almost human. A philosopher thinking. The photo is well focused, exposed and treated with mixed media. I appreciate the sharpness of detail and the realism of color. The shallow background emphasizes the bird. The Eagle is well placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

Fantastic photograph of this Hawk. I love the warm golden colors of the background. Good focus and lighting. Sharp detail. Well composed. All colors and tones are natural. Nicely done.

A beautiful profile. I like the way the background glows and it seems a little of that glow is on his shoulder. Great colors and very fine detail in his face.

Hey Eileen!
Wow this is a wonderful photo you have shared of this beautiful hawk. The colors and background are amazing and allow those dark feathers to contrast nicely. The pose and angle are perfect and have been well presented. Very beautiful work!

I really like all the golden hues in this portrait of a hawk, and I like the close and personal approach. I especially like how lovely the light is falling on the bird, and also how well it is standing out from the softened background.

The photo is sharp and it is such clear and well defined details to be seen in the feathers of the bird. The exposure is perfect.

The photo is nicely cropped and the bird has got a fine placement off to the left. A truly beautiful and well taken photo Eileen, and with an excellent DOF.

Eileen,
A great picture of this beautiful Hawk in the rehab centre keeping an eye on you. The light catching the sparkle in it's eye, while highlighting it's beautiful plumage. The beautiful blurred & glowing background makes an artistic backdrop for the Hawk. Artistic composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

Wow. What a captivating image BFF. The overall golden glow from the sun really makes this one special.

The focus is sharp on the eye and beak and a bit softer on the shoulder of the wing. Both give a special look and feel.

Background is perfect for emphasizing this beautiful bird.

Well done BFF. Now about those lessons....
