Red Hawk (I think)

Fooling around with a 300 f/2.8 and 2x TC II. As I do not shoot

wildlife, can anyone lend some constructive criticism???

 

As always your comments, good or bad, are greatly appreciated.

This is a very nice head shot. I would like to see a little more light in the eye (dodge in PS).

Just caught sight of your new entry on the critique forum as I have just placed a new one to. I may be wrong also but I think this is known over here(UK) as a Chicken Hawk. I have no bad comments to make as this portrait view is A-one perfect. The lighting, depth, focus are all spot on. I can see all the detail of each and every feather. I bet it looks really great at its original full size. So you will be off to photograph lots more wildlife now(I hope).

Thank you for the help.. I jsut got home from my trip and hava a lot of images to process but I will try what you suggest and post it here. Thanks!

Thanks for taking the time to comment on this photo... Not too far from my airshow photos... I mean they both fly right? LOL Thanks again for the comments and I look forward to posting more as soon as I can unpack my things from my flight.
