I beg your pardon for the seeming rudeness of the 'z' comment. Here's what happened (I think)--I often vote a night when it's quiet. I usually look at the image for a while while thinking about a comment. Sometimes I fall asleep. I think I must've hit the z without knowing it, & then voted. I couldn't think of anything to say other than it's a great shot of an awesome bird, in a truly classic pose. I would be very pleased to capture such a shot myself. Well done!

Hello from the Critique club

An interesting image that does not meet the challenge

I am assuming that the 'broken' advanced editing rule is your cloning as described in your description but this is allowable in the rules so it is not broken. If that is not the case then it is not obvious to me, or indeed, your voters what rule has been broken. Having said that it is has placed and scored very respectably. In terms of the image itself I seem to find myself repeating myself in that I like to see an element of animation through motion blur and there is evidence of over-sharpening, these are both aspects that I know I have commented on before. I really don't want to give a negative impression with regard to your otherwise excellent eagle images but I have to be honest with both of us.

Thank you for your entry.

I fear me that you have put a stuffed eagle (I like the cheesit claws) on a real life branch.
