Thanks. I was a grab shot as I saw the vulture at the top of the tree. I drove the vehicle forward slightly to get the moon behind. Love how it gives an angelic halo around the vulture. I couldn't get the moon in focus though, but I think this works better.

forum: Birds

The one thing I'd try is cropping out the lower/left a bit and moving it so the main bird is a bit more in the left area of the frame. This would, both, get rid of some of the extraneous visuals in the existing left and make it so he's looking "across" the frame moreso than "out" of the frame as he's doing now. Just something to try; still like the image as it is.
