nice capture,good light and BG,sharp were it needs to be,beak open a bonus.
Nothing to critique here!
Great BG and love the wings down and slight angulation of the tail that shows the topside.
Nice and sharp and great light. I like the composition and the amount of space you have left around the carmine.

lovely image!! IQ & pose are excellent. colors stand out against the BG. particularly like the arc made by the tail.
Outstanding - nothing more need be said.
What a great shot Brendon. The colors and movement are super
Love the pose, although I would have liked a slight head turn towards you. Great sharpness, and I like the sandy BG. Do you have enough pixels to crop a little tighter?
I like the swooping lines of the pose. Nice BG and colours. I think taking a bit off the bottom would work well.
I love the image for the colours, the details are great and sweet plain BG
classic flight shot
excellent pose and sweet light. sharp and the BG was great. I'd crop tighter if the IQ holds
Thanks all for your great comments and advice, much appreciated.
Excellent flight shot. lovely colors & BG. The open beak make it more powerful.
