I entered an online competition, the subject being B&W and so I played a while and came up with these from my trip to the Wildlife Park. I would like your comments on these (even though I have entered them anyway). :)

Any comments welcome :)

    Hi, the composition / cropping on #1 is very interesting, good clarity on the tail feathers as well.

    Cheers, Richard.

    Thanks. I am not very good at birds in flight, so quite pleased with the clarity here. Cheers. :)

    Thank you...quite a big bird, is the Black Kite...not as big as the Red Kite, however.
    Whereas the tiger is definitely big...it always amazes me how big they are, and their head's are massive. :)

    Cheers
