European Bee Eater

Beautiful representation of this colorful bird, Marco.

Sharpness and exposure seem just about perfect.

Since the bird is near-perfect, and there aren't any perspective objects, you might want to consider tightening the crop somewhat, to reduce the sky area.

excellent position of bird and food in beak is added bonus , though I liked this as posted but may like to see tighter version too

Wonderful exposure and sharpness! Do you have another with the wings outstretched more?

Thanks everybody.
As said this is a crop 3000 x 2000 , i may crop it more but i have a kind of limit of 3000x2000...
I hope i would take them more close ( maybe only 2m more close )....
>>Do you have another with the wings outstretched more?
Yes, i have many others photos on my website www.peschieramarco.com in the gallery bee eaters
I will post some others in the next days.

Thanks everybody,

Wow !!! Awesome timing and a superb flight pose. The insect is a superb bonus to this wonderful captue. Congratulations Marco !!!

Great job catching this bird in mid flight and with food. Would have preferred a down-wing pose and tighter crop. :)

nice and sharp, well done. Better wing position will take this to the top.
