A very unusual angle Dion and a great image. I love it. No nitpickings.

This is very nice. I like the light and wings position. The clean BG makes your subject stand out!

Outstanding flight image Dion with a great flight pose and feeling of action. It is always wonderful to see the topside . Beautiful work and thanks for sharing.

yeah love to see these guys heading for the cliffs !!! Great capture here DION. I really enjoyed shooting these with you when we did. Need to get a little fitter for that climb again !! Ha Ha !!
No technical flaws, only pity is that people can't actually get a feeling for just how fast these guys dive like this.
Wonderful image !!

Great topside view of this pose and the BG looks good, too. How much of a crop is this?
