This is a falconry hawk that was in the weathering yard of a meet. He decided to strike a pose.

Nice shot Trey! I think it would have more impact if you cropped just to the right of that open space near his stomach. His neck would then be cut off to an extant, but I think the comp would be better. Just my preference of course..

Way to take advantage of an opportunity! I love the pattern and detail in this. The composition is excellent.

Excellent feather detail here. Perhaps a lower angle - very minor. A very nice portrait.
