this image has great composition; however the sky is very overblown. It makes it difficult for the eye to go straight to the bird. My vision was fist drawn to the leaves on the left, which has a little too much noise for my liking. Could benefit from a little noise reduction and some unsharp mask.
Leaves are pretty much framing the hawk. Wish the sky weren't so drab but I'm sure the hawk wasn't going to wait around for a better-looking background.
