A Eurasian Sparrowhawk captured in a calm moment while looking back over its shoulder. The soft foreground blur, smooth natural background, and beautifully layered plumage create an elegant wildlife portrait that highlights the alert expression and graceful posture of this agile woodland raptor.
Damian, the layering in the wing feathers is distinct here. The foreground grass adds depth without distracting from the subject's gaze. Did you use a longer focal length for this shot to get that separation?

If I remember correctly, I used a Nikkor 600/4 FL for this photo. Regards.

A 600mm lens would certainly explain the tight framing and subject isolation. Did you find it difficult to keep the hawk in focus while it was turning?
Thank you very much for your comment. Best regards.
