Hi Arash,
I am starting to feel badly.:S3: I know this is a critique forum but there is nothing to critique except to say it is a beautiful flight shot with a great BG.

I know I should not say WD, or nice photo or I like it and find something clever to say.
WD, an outstanding photo.

Hi Arash, you have captured a great flying posture in stunning light, and just love the feather detail. That BG is a killer.

[Peter Seidel]

Top quality Arash. I'll need to research some good shooting areas there - I'm not far from Half Moon Bay.

I also took a look at your larger collection - stellar stuff. With this one I might not crop it quite as tightly, but otherwise wouldn't change anything.
