Nailed it Arash - sweet light - good HA - LOVE the outstretched wings.
Exposure looks right on the money - nice fast SS to freeze the action.
Good show :)

Beauty Arash...everything is good here. Agree with Lance...you nailed it. I told you you were in for something special going on the Hooptie Deux with Captain James.....expecting more postings from Alafia Banks

Very nice, under wings are well lit.
That is one great place to shoot for sure.

[Alfred Forns]

Sweet image Arash !!! Great pose light and detail !!

One thing you can try but do need to be careful is smoothing out the shadow line on the wing. Can do by cloning from each side with the clone stamp tool, taking some from one side to the other .... tricky but will work !!!

Hi Arash, I'm singing with the choir. Nothing to add except very nicely done!!

[Dave Leroy]

What's not to like here. lovely colours pose and sharpness.

[Vilma Rodriguez]

[Bill Dix]

Hi Arash. Agree with all of the above -- wonderful angles, exposure, comp, sharpness. Well done indeed!
