Nice placement of the bird.

The subtleness of the cage makes this picture a lot more powerful. Great title.

The background looks so cool, I'm curious how you did that. The colors all work really well together.

Good shot. A bit tighter of a shot would score even higher.

I'd have cropped a bit more to get more focus on the bird. Also, a bit of PP on the eye would make it more of the subject.
Not voting yet.

he does have the noble look, wish it was a touch more saturated..

Nice shot of this hawk. Your title gives away that it is captive though, you should have tried to fake it that you got this in the wild. ;)

Nice capture and detail. Perhaps a bit closer would be better, since there isn't anything obvious in the shot that says it is in captivity.

Effective background. Bird looks like it could be a little sharper.

Beautiful bird and a good title. I would like sharper focus, but perhaps that was your intent? Nice image in any case.

nice 'catch'...

A nice looking bird, good composition. Would like to see it a bit brighter.

nice effort , but focus needs to be crisper

Zoom in more since the background is not used.

The hexagon shapes of the fence keep drawing my eyes away from the subject.

The bolt upright pose does give the bird a proud look. I would have liked to see a slightly tighter crop if possible so that I can see more detail of the bird and the beautiful patterns on those feathers.

Beautiful bird. Lighting a bit flat.

Great patterns on the birds front

The background is a bit distracting. Is it a fence in the background? My eye is drawn away from the bird and to the background trying to make out what it is.

what a beautiful bird...really like your colors

Lovely Coopers hawk, she looks very intent
interesting abstract background, i would like to see the hawk fill more of the picture though

Beautiful bird. Has a kind of sad look, but his attitude is wonderful.

The background is rather distracting (possibly the cage?)

nice raptor ;) a little shallower DOF might have helped get rid of the fence in the BG.

the background is confusing
03/12/2009 11:15:52 AMPost actions
The fence pattern is a little distracting.
03/11/2009 05:34:49 PMPost actions
He does look quite confident. By the way, does he only have one foot?
03/11/2009 04:32:04 PMPost actions
The background is to cluttered but the bird is nice!
03/11/2009 03:39:04 PMPost actions
The bokeh is like nature's plaid. I like the rich emerald greens.
03/11/2009 03:15:05 PMPost actions
The background is very distracting. Nice profile on the bird though.
03/11/2009 11:35:49 AMPost actions
nice shot, but a little soft in my opinion
03/11/2009 09:12:26 AMPost actions
The fence makes for some interesting patterns in the background, but I think I'd crop closer to better show the raptor. They have such interestingly fierce expressions.
03/11/2009 08:19:01 AMPost actions
That's a great shot. Where's its other foot though?
I'd suggest cropping a bit of space off the top though.
