Cool pose and a nice job on the exposure with a really spectacular background, Sandy.

It may be "just a Vulture" but you seem to have made it into a glamour shot. Everything is very nice!

Good detail and nice capture with the wings spread. The background colors are pretty sweet and, for me, makes the image more than "just a vulture." Well done.

I never can manage a "beautiful" image of these guys. You did, however. Nicely done.

This is indeed an extraordinary shot Sandy. Excellent timing to catch the wing spread, and I just haven't seen a nicer BG.
