Gadwalls chasing. Had to crop tight to show detail on both birds. The chase ended up well

Hi Arash,
This is a great flight shot of 2 birds and both tack sharp. I like the open beak of the bird being chased. You said it ended well but what exactly do you mean?
I think the problem with this shot is that no matter how awesome it is, it is hard to surpass your last tern shot!! I still have that one on my mind!

Nice flight shot, Arash. I cannot really judge but they both look sharp to me.

I am surprised you got both sharp shooting wide open.
Nice flight pose for these guys and very sharp.

Thanks guys I also wish every shot came out like the Tern shot, but it doesn't :D
Gail, by "ended well" I meant no injury! can get rough some times!
Dan, this image is about 50% of the frame so I could get both inside dof. There was actually a 3rd duck with a more dynamic pose to the left which I had to clone out because it was OOF ;) if that one was sharp this would be close to a good action photo

Excellent capture, both pin sharp make this one for me, like the flight angle and lovely soft light well done.

I love this! Would define the catchlight in the bird on the left a bit more.

Great action and both birds are sharp. I like the same wing positions and how the front bird is desperately looking back at the pursuer.
