Cheryl,

That is the best in flight shot of a Marbled Godwit I have seen. Really enjoy every bit of it.

And you're right, I was really hoping for the rain to go away this weekend as I was hoping to make one last trip to Tampa for some shooting before the big move. :(

Hi Cheryl,
This is a terrific shot. I don't think I have seen a nicer flight shot of a marbled godwit.
Great light and IQ. I like how he/she is skimming over the water.

[Girish Prahalad]

excellent freeze with great details.

[Karl Egressy]

Excellent shooting angle and details, Cheryl.

[Daniel Cadieux]

How cool! I do feel that a bit more sharpening to the face area could be good, but all else is top-notch!

[Bill Dix]

What a beautiful flight shot of this Godwit. I love the underwing detail in particular.

[PhilCook]

How good is that !?! Light and sharpness and detail perfect I think, and like how you have filled the frame with such good quality, very nicely done Cheryl.

I presume rain is a problem over your way atm, but the subdued light from I guess overcast skies has made this image expose nicely

[Robert Kimbrell]

Very nice Cheryl. You captured nice light on the entire bird. Great detail and exposure.

[David Salem]

A little late to the party but had to stop by to say "Great capture". I love BIF stuff and you keep putting out some very nice shots Cheryl. This one is great and one I would be proud to have in my files.
Techs and details look very nice.
Way to sling that big rig around too.
Well done.

[Doug Brown]

That's a pretty darned good flight shot Cheryl!

[Marina Scarr]

Ditto what Doug said! Nice to see the underpinnings of that wing lit up. Agree on a tad more sharpening to the head only.

[arash_hazeghi]

[Frank Schauf]

Great light and flight pose.
