The lighting on the bird and BG is also extraordinary! You were in the perfect position. Interesting side profile angle on the crane.

Excelent shot. Just little more space in front of the bird will be better.

Excellent pose... head and feet and wings all stretched out for the landing. Looking forward to the Dance.

Maxis, you have certainly captured the awkward beauty of the sandhill in your series. This one is my favorite...so far. Perfect light and moment captured. It reminds me of the finish landing from a gymnastics routine.
