I have to say that’s a pretty flawless portrait. Amazing detail, perfect backdrop, everything really sharp.
Shame there’s no Exif data. Care to share some details… technical, location?
(jb7… I thought you were mucking about with those stars… please… no more, I can’t take it.)
Ok – EXIF…
Nikon D2Xs
Sigma 150mm F2.8 Macro
Handheld
1/180″
F5.6
ISO400Taken at Gauntlet Bird of Prey Centre – Knutsford – Cheshire.
The background was a dark green sheet of corrugated iron – I burned it out in Photoshop.
Stunning! That’s what I call a portrait. Butterflies in Lancashire, images from the Bronte country, a house front (1940s series) with a real north of England feel. Where are you based. I hail from the Red Rose county.
Cheers.

Interesting use of the 150mm Macro. Can I ask what sort of distance was between yourself and the bird?

About 2m
The only reason I used the 150mm is that I’d lent my Nikon 70-200mm F2.8 to a friend as his main zoom was poorly.
