This image I took whilst on horse-back; I was taking my horse Harvey out, when I caught it soaring above head. So, I took out my camera (yes, I even take my camera on a horse
) And snapped it
I think it's a buzzard? Or a sparrow hawk?
Can someone help me out?

It's a buzzard, with quite a bit of light markings, they are normally more uniform brown. Could be a juvenile, or could just be a one off. There is one that lives in my local woods that is particularly light in colour.

It's a buzzard. You can tell it from the black tips of the wings.
Do you have a polarising filter? The sky looks so deep and the bird is so sharp and not overexposed.
Awesome :3
