Another great shot GRACE! This picture of The Cooper's Hawk is awesome as all of your photos! I like your choice of vertical size. The artist notes are excellent! You deleted some unwanted background branches, it's a plus for your work. The eyes are fantastic. I love it!!!

Your vertical framing works well! Your central composition is engaging. I love how he's looking right into your lens. Nice expression on his face. Your lighting, focus, details and clarity are good. I enjoyed reading your artists notes on these Cooper's Hawks....nice readable storytelling. Nice work and thanks for sharing!

Wow! Love the details and colors of the feathers. Nice clear focus. Beautiful contrast with the brown, yellow, cream hawk against the blue sky. Love those orange intense eyes! Beautiful shot! I can see the smallest details of those claws!

Lovely capture of this beautiful raptor. I like your nice tight centralized crop. His stare right at you is just divine, especially since you have such perfect sharp focus on his face. I was going to suggest desaturating the blue in the sky but, your other colors and white balance are so spot on, I suspect that the sky really was that blue. :) Lovely shot. Thanks for sharing.

Cool,Grace!
That's a fine looking picture of the little creature regarding us somewhat warily as it perches on that small branch with the bright blue sky as a background! : )
A very 'Good Show',my friend!
