    Red tailed hawk.

    The sun made a strange green line around this hawk, and i liked the composition too much to just let it go, what do you guys think of this?

    Re: Red tailed hawk.

    I'm 50/50 on this one. I love the kinda silhouettes of the tree and the bird, but am annoyed by the blue of the sky in the picture. I belive a full b/w would be a better choice for the picture, since you can't see much of the birds details anyways.


    Just my thoughts,

    Yeah, black and white would definitely make this image stronger and add more meaning to all the stray branches.

    Re: Red tailed hawk.

    I agree with the others... B/W conversion would make this a stronger picture.... the subject and the mood are fantastic, and the sharpness is excellent. Makes me glad I'm not a rabbit on the ground.

    I would make the hawk more central. Crop the hawk close. B&W wouldn't be bad, but try the crop first, then see.
