Thanks for your comments Gene, I appreciate them. I think you hit on it, detached look. Chuck

Very nice image Chuck. I agree about its appeal. THe setting is great and the detached look from the hawk is part of it.

Cheers,
Gene

Thanks CJ. This was a very fortunate shot. I went to the park to take some photos of the Point Loma Lighthouse. It was under repair and fenced off so I decided to walk the old gunnery trail and saw this hawk flying about. :-) Chuck

You had good light, and handled it well -- the background light and colors are muted but add to the beauty of the image. The position of the raptor is great for viewing both the lovely patterns in its feathers AND its beautiful face. The eye really shows off well.

Thanks Jarett. I was on my knees peeking under a tree branch when I took that one. I think the hawk was wondering what I was up to. :-) Chuck

this image has a certain appeal to it that i cannot quite place. Great subject and composition. Look forward to seeing more of your work.
