Caught him at the right time with wings up, great exposure, very sharp. I like the little bit of water and the bg.

Ah...beautiful shot. Doves are great. excellent call on the high SS. the raised wings and the about-to-land feet are awesome. light, shooting angle, subject angle...you nailed this one.

I agree with the above comments. This is a superb image. I assume the feet are covered in mud from a previous landing site or are they this color?

Very nice. I like the mud on the feet and so they match the BG perfectly. Good low angle and wing position,
