Hi Gary,
Love the pose and colors. If this is a crop, the image looks a little tight but you did well. What part of Louisiana is this from?

Gary,
A stunning image. Would have loved had the bird's left wing was sharp too. But a superb image the way it is. I usually prefer to have more room around the subject but in this case I like it they way you have presented. Congratulations!!! Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of art.

Lovely image Gary. A faster iso of say 400 would have allowed a smaller aperature for greater DOF for bird's left wing.
I also find myself looking for the eyes - lightening the face and eyes would give the image that extra punch!!

Great pose, setting and BG. I would have gone to ISO 200 or 400 for higher shutter speed.

Love the action here Gary and the wing position is awesome. Would like to have seen a little more room but still a wonderful capture as is. The stick really is a very nice bonus .

Killer shot! I love the pose, the colors and the bird. I have traveled so many times here in Florida to get these guys...and never succeeded! Congratulations.

Awesome photo Gary!
IMO the SS is perfect, but a higher iso could have given you more DOF indeed.

Great action, Ilike the image. Looks a little cool, bluish cast to me, a warming up would help quite a bit to bring out the pink also.
