POsting After a long time as work and then an illness kept me down for a long time...I got a chance to look at some older images and processed this one.
Tell me what you think?
7D+500mm, F5.6, Handheld, ISO 500, Almost full frame. The BG is a well lit roof. not much work needed from camera, sharpening action and some NR
Super flight pose with maximum wings down. Very sharp and nicely exposed. I can't say I'm crazy about the BG color; you might try desaturating it a bit. I'd also crop some off the bottom of the frame. Still, an excellent flight shot of a challenging subject.

Lovely light, sharpness and wing pose! I would desat the BG a tad.
Nice flight pose. Techs and crop look good. The BG is nice but not sure if the color is accurate? Nice job!

Amazing image Amol
The bg is a bit bright in here and may be it being toned down a little will lift the image more
Love the wing position and the golden eye, super bird and perfectly captured in mid air

Terrific flight pose and super job getting this fast duck sharp and at a good angle. I would crop from bottom and a little from left as well.
It's great to have you back, and looking forward to more of your images.
