Wow! An absolute stunner. Well exposed for the underneath and the head at just the right angle to see the face an eye. A photo to be very proud of :t:

Spread out your butterfly wings and you could be soaring together,Marian. A shot to be proud of and Segovia salutes you with a glorious arpeggio. This picture is a credit to Leica and to you. Very well done. :clap:

:bounce: Utterly delighted with the appreciation shown to this pic, thanks a million for your kindness looking and commenting!!! o

This is a very special place for raptors in general, and Vultures in particular. At the right moment of the day, they soar so close that the sight is overwhelming. With the right equipment and skills, the pictures taken should be breathtaking. This one comes from just a moderate crop.

Thank you again, everyone! :t:
