Very good detail captured below the wings. Nice colour. Comp could be a bit tight.

[Gyorgy Szimuly]

Impressive image with nice details. Love the sharpness and blue sky.

Other than being a bit tight , this is an outstanding image.

[Stu Bowie]

Arash, you nailed the exposure here, and what detail from the underwings. Lovely posture, and although the comp suits the angle of flight, I would maybe add a bit to the RHS.

[Ilija Dukovski]

I like it very much, nice detail on the bird. Nicely done regarding the light and exposure.
Reminds me on the cover page of Sibley's Guide to Birds.

[David Fletcher]

Pretty well nailed this Arash. Tad tight but details and glint in the eye are superb.

Nice detail and exposure on this shot outstanding....;)

[Lorant Voros]

This is nicely done. Also love the great exposure and detail. I'd go for a bit wider crop as well. Congrats.

[Aidan Briggs]

I agree with the others on the positives, and the tight crop. You also might try some more NR on the BG.

[Ramon M. Casares]

IMO a bit more contrast and to tone down the hot whites would make this one an even better image, slightly more room would also help. COngratualtions!

[arash_hazeghi]

Thanks a lot guys for comments, this is another one with more room and more contrast.

It's a beauty, I would run some NR on the BG too.

[Dr.Pranay Rao Juvvadi]

I like the OP. Great light and details.
