The beautiful lighting makes this shot for me Jeff.

[Fabs Forns]

The light is superb and s is the pose. I may make the catch light a little smaller for a more natural look.
You got a 500/4 back???

[Don Lacy]

Wonderful under wing detail and lighting.

Very lovely flight pose and excellent detail and lighting Jeff. I have tried many times to capture one of these beauties but so far no success. Congratulations on a fine image !!!
