Wow - that's a colourful little fella. Perhaps he's a bit of a ham.

Nice capture!

Wow is absolutely right! What a gorgeous shot and of course the subject is not lacking anything. Can't wait for next weeks posting.

Hey Jim,

I would be very concerned about this new behavior from these Kestrels. It is very possible that you are being stalked. I would not suggest open confrontation. Instead, just head to the local precinct and speak to the police about it. They may tell you that you will need an order of protection.

On a serious note, beautiful shot. Very well done. Are the colors from pp or are they naturally that rich and saturated? I believe in the last kestrel shot that you beefed up the colors a bit.

I'd just stay home from now on, you cant afford a possible attach. . .

Very beautiful shot, great light! Nice color. Did you get any flight shots?

I do boost colors about 5% in the LAB mode on the A-B channels. But the richness comes from morning light and a polarizer really making them pop. I'm a Velvia shooter from way back so my taste in color is probably a bit warped, LOL!! This image is a less colorful female from last year with no color enhancement as a comparision.
