NICE capture, Dave ... I have to agree with Bill about the sharpening .... steve #4361681

Thanks Hurk. Although I tried to attach yhe original it doesn't seem to have worked. Folks started telling me as soon as I posted the original to clean it up a little. Problem is I love shooting but am not a huge fan of post processing! Thanks for taking the time.

A great image that is getting better, Dave. I think it could still use some further sharpening. You really should start enjoying the processing. A Ferrari without a good paint job just ain't right! :)

What an amazing capture and a beautiful, beautiful bird!! Wow....
I do know what you mean, a great image is one without a lot of postprocessing UNLESS you are creating an artful image out of it! This is where I eventually hope get someday!! #4726336

Thanks Dianna. I agree with your postprocessing view. Thanks for looking around and taking the time to comment. #4727241

Kameron, I love your enthusiasm! I hope it is contagiouse. This shot was mostly...a mistake. The hawk was actually eating something really disgusting and I wanted the whole scene. What you see is him flying off because I am neither sneeky nor quiet! Thanks for commenting. Dave #5100252
