This is a crop of the original work. This image allows for a closer examination of the detail and meticulous care taken in selecting the hawk for addition into the sunset image that I photographed.

I captured this Mountain sunset a week ago in September (2017) at Rough Ridge on the south side of Grandfather Mountain. GFM State Park, North Carolina, USA. I was surprised to find the Autumn change in color already in motion.
