High key hawk.

I'd like to think of this a portrait of a subject that happens to be wild more than a wildlife picture.

Red tailed hawk.



Canon 50d with EF 400 f5.6L. Severely cropped, Raw conversion in Canon DPP, B&W in Photoshop CS3.

Very nice! The separation line is very clean.

I really like this shot because it is something different than the normal flying hawk shot. This gives it that predator feel which is awesome!

I really like the B&W conversion you have used for this shot. Perfect amount of contrast.
