Falcon Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Another photo from our trip to Kirkleatham Owl Centre. It's slightly blurry, or seems so to me. But it wasn't a planned photo, just taken quickly as it happened. He seems to be ready to do a pirhouette.

It's one of a few Falcons they have there, which seemed to be itching to show us what they do in their flying display. Unfortunately we didn't see them fly this time, as the centre was a bit short staffed, and could only fly two birds that time.

It's nice to see a picture of the full bird with its wings outstreched but the blur is unfortunatelly a bit distracting. I've done a workshop to try and sharpen it but you're a bit limited on these scaled down images.

Great you managed to capture the falcon with its wings outstretched! As always with anmals in captivity the photos always look better then they are not tied up or in a cage, but still its a good capture, even if it is a touch blurry.
