Osprey Overhead

This osprey flew directly overhead, so I was shooting almost straight up. Managed to hold the camera steady enough to get a good shot. In the original image, the bird's eye is sharp!

Nikon D3 ,Sigma 50-500mm f/4-6.3 EX DG/HSM
1/400s f/10.0 at 500.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
