HI

I tried for a few flight shots. I was never really good at it, but this came out pretty nice :)

I hope you will enjoy it

I added an archive to my website, you might wanna have a look at it :)

Just lovely. The soft light is perfect and so is the background. In an ideal world the near wing would be swept back a bit more and the near foot would be set against the white tail feathers rather than the the black central ones.

later and love, artie

Complementing background, sharp subject and action all packed in one image. Excellent.

Too many superlatives could be used here so I will just say I really like this.

Should be called a long neck duck-Great pose-good to see the neck/head seperated from the wing,All the colours complement each other nicely-would be pleased with this one

This is beautiful, Jan.
The colors and bg are outstanding. The pose is great--and Artie mentioned the nits on wing and foot--but it is a cool image nevertheless!

Beautiful shot. Really like the details in the pintail and the space in front of the bird.

Man, I am unhappy not to see it earlier :( :)
I really like it. Fine with the blurred wingtips.
