Clayton Cotterell, Photographer, Portland

Description

A man stands outdoors with a large hawk perched on a thick leather gauntlet on his raised arm, its wings spread wide against a clear blue sky. The man wears a light-coloured t-shirt and looks toward the bird with a calm expression. Natural sunlight illuminates the scene, highlighting the detailed textures of the bird's plumage and the leather glove. The photographic composition captures a close moment of interaction between the falconer and the raptor.
