  15. I was out all weekend trying to get a shot of a hawk when I was in the Midwest, and I never got anything worth keeping. This is just a phenomenal shot — I’m so jealous! Nice capture.

  16. If you don’t mind I’d like to ask a quick question, could I use this picture on a poster to sell? Here is what the poster will look like:
