Peregrin Falcon (Near Godrevy, Cornwall)

Spent some time watching this chap this evening after work on the cliffs near Godrevy in the lovely golden evening light - its a spot they frequent a lot and I was patient and lucky enough to get close enough for a few shots. Raptors really are something.

Very nice! Great capture. What a joy to see this, wonderful light too

Great shot, Mark, lovely light.

Nice shot, what do you reckon your chances of getting an in flight one then

I agree...Raptors are something and this is a great image of one. Love the perch and it looking out into the open. Well done!

Mark, this is one fantastic image. I have seen many images of Peregrines, and have some of my own, but this is as good as it gets. Great work.

NIce capture!!!!!!!

It is a beautiful image Mark..the lighting is outstanding!

wonderful lighting

Lovely shot with nice light and beautiful scenery!

Thanks for your kind remarks. Experiencing moments like this make photography such a wonderful pastime.

Great Capture Mate!!!

Outstanding shot Mark

thats a beutifull shot

Beautiful image and great light and pose. I like the eye level angle and it gives the impression you are on the cliff with the bird. If it was mine I would take a bit off the top to equalize the negative space with the space between the bottom and the bird's tail. This would also reduce the oof obstruction on the top right....
