Great capture Brian! Perfect depth of field and sharp at the eye. I like the way the sharpness fades away in the direction of the wing. Compliments!

Canadian Raptor Conservency.Time
Late afternoonLighting
It was overcast with a steady rain. There were 5 photographers as oart of the raptors in flight workshop. When the rain came, they all left. Only myself and one other photographer remained & both captured some incredible images. There are a couple more sweet shots in the rain on my page.Equipment
Canon 1d mark IV 400mm IS IIInspiration
The rain was the inspiration. I loved the light & the way the bird used his wings to shield himselfEditing
Yes of course. Minor post processing in ask e bridge. There is a couple more of this shot on my page. One in B&W & one I cloned out the jesses for a more natural look.In my camera bag

Wild life Photography is like fishing. It Requires a lot of patience.
