Its been a while since I have posted anything so here is one taken about a month ago.
This was taken during the Flight School Workshop by Doug and Jim. The Juvenile Elegants
have such nice wing markings.

As good as it gets James. Excellent wing-tip-to-wing-tip sharpness and superb BG. Liked the crop a lot too.

Jim, Great to see you posting again. You've been missed. I love the sharp details and the topside view. Excellent!:)

[Greg Basco]

You are right, those wing markings are quite beautiful - and you've showcased them nicely here. I like your chosen crop, and the slightly ajar bill.

I hope you were teaching at the workshop bro, your among the best.

Excellent shot., and killer pose!

[Arthur Morris]

Both you and your great flight images (like this one) have been missed. Welcome back. The dorsal view and feather detail here are superb.

[Bill Dix]

A beauty, Jim. Ditto others' comments about view, comp and detail; plus, lovely light.

[Michael Zajac]

Great top view, Nice sharpness and exposure.

[Doug Brown]

Awesome capture Jim! Never did get the frame I wanted with that bird; I would have been pretty happy with this one.

I hope you were teaching at the workshop bro, your among the best.

Yes he was (teaching) and yes he is (among the best). :)
