with wings strong enough to break a man's arm, they can be a terror!
Neato catch!

love the composition of this, it's really strong - the beak is framed perfectly in the corner and the strength on the wings stretching backwards; the body seems really long and powerful.

only negative i'd say is that it's too light/overexposed and lacks detail in the feathers and sky - sure you could get a decent enough fix on photoshop for such a cool image; i feel like it needs deeper greys and maybe even switch to black and white.

beautiful - captures the character well
