@Kheoh Yee Wei: Thanks for your visit! Yes, I could have done that but in one way I wanted to show how tall the bird was and to keep the feather's detail. Please stop by again ;)
Brilliant textures! Spectacular.

Eine tolle Vogelserie mit sehr schönen Bildern. Bei diesem Bild gefällt mir besonders wie Du den typisch strengen Geierblick perfekt eingefangen hast.

Ich hab mir Ihre Vogelporträte angeschaut und mich erstaunt und erfreut über was die Bilder mehr oder anders sagen als wenn man die Tiere in Wirklichkeit sieht, es ist alsob man in ihre Seele schaut! Danke für dieses Erlebnis!
