cappoldt 0 Posted August 1, 2005 I think it's GREAT:) I just posted a very similar one from our fun morning, Dmitry. You used more DOF, and it worked well for you. I think you chose a great background - I was watching for that as we took these. It's going to take me a few days to get all these raptors finished in the digital darkroom. Off to see what else you posted...! Link to comment
chad_goldman 0 Posted August 1, 2005 Really like this shot. Like the dark theme to it, brings a sense of awe. He looks powerful and menacing. wonderfully done. cg Link to comment

dk. 0 Posted August 1, 2005 Dmitry lovely picture I wish the picture as a whole was just a bit lighter though as to me it is just a bit to dark, but still a very nice shot. Well done. DK. Link to comment

dmozzherin 0 Posted August 1, 2005 Thank you everybody for your comments and criticism! David I think you are right and overal tone is darker than it should be. Original background was much lighter and I decided to darken it to emphasize the bird, and now I too think I overdid the darkening. Link to comment
1000wordsphotography 0 Posted August 2, 2005 I am blown away... wonderfully deep colors and such clarity. Link to comment
dmozzherin 0 Posted August 2, 2005 Here is a version with lighter background, I cannot decide which is better, any ideas? Link to comment
chad_goldman 0 Posted August 2, 2005 Dmitry, I like the original for the reasons I stated earlier. But I think the lighter version you posted is a better technical photo. Nice muted background and the hawk still holds great contrast and color. The dark areas stand out better and the bird is better portrayed. cg Link to comment
dk. 0 Posted August 3, 2005 Dmitry I like both, But was wondering if you could just lighten the bird a bit in the darker picture? not the background. DK. Link to comment
