Nice wind! Nice soft light. Nice bird. Sharp. Right on sun angle. Beautiful underwing lighting and detail. If it were mine, I would try to do something with the three areas of sand on the lower frame edge.

John, such a pretty wingspread. The soft and easy feel of the canvas really let the subject pop.

Very glad the grasses end and fade just underneath so as not to take away. Composition is sweet and very nice detail. Well done!

Super shot John, great pose and very nice composition. Focus bang on.

Lovely crisp whites in the pic make the oranges and black really pop.

Awesome
