My photo "Red-Tailed Hawk in the Ramble" won an honorable mention in Wild and Tamed online art exhibition

Blue Koi Gallery has awarded my photograph of a red-tailed hawk! You can see my work and the other winning pieces over at the link. The exhibition went live on April 15th. Thank you so much for the award! That photograph captures one of my favorite photography moments. I had just seen the hawk take a bath at Azalea Pond in the Central Park ramble, and he flew off to a nearby tree to relax. It was one of those quiet moments where I felt connected to the bird.
