I have another peregrine in my gallery taken from an old scan, but I couldn't resist this ones attitude. He's warming himself by spreading his shoulders to the sun. I would have liked to include the whole bird but there was some rather unatractive background mess, like the bath mat wrapped around his perch.

This is another great capture. I love the colors here also. You captured them well. I like the up close & personal shot you gave us....it makes this peregrine look very intimidating! Well done, thanks Kilie! :))

We have several in our area and see them in the sky frequently - this is a whole new perspective on an awesome bird.

Beautiful photo of an amazing bird! There is a program in my home town which has been monitoring the perigrine falcon births and the success of different families. They have released a number of these back into the city! Great shot!

What an incredible shot. How the focus shifts from front to back. It's perfect, emphasising the majesty of this predator. Look at those eyes, he's ready to go for the kill. Just like your shot. A masterpiece!

fabulous compositional lines theres for me an almost instinctual use of 1/3rds all over this photo that lead ones yes directly to the falcon's ... and then we're caught
the DoF is lovely and again leads us to the hungry beak
superb

Great shot Kilie, it has a feeling of flight. Nice work with the composition to exclude its surroundings.
