Landing godwit

Marbled Godwit

1DX 600II + 1.4X III f/6.3 1/3200sec ISO 800 handheld.

Excellent landing pose you have captured. Love the full up wing position, beautiful colors, especially the pink in beak, details and wonderful IQ.
Godwit superbly pops up against lovely blues of BG.

Lovely image, great light, colours and well exposed, very well captured.

Excellent light, landing pose, IQ & BG. Perfectly exposed. TFS

terrific landing pose here! great details & the light looks awesome.

Couldn't ask for a much better landing pose with great body angle, eye contact, wing position, and leg separation.
Beautiful light and BG and excellent techs as well!

Given the pose, I would like to see a bit more room on the right and bottom.

Killer pose and light, Arash. Love seeing all those feather details under the wing.

Hi Ari, great incoming pose, captured in soft light, and with excellent sharpness throughout. Love the browns of the bird against the blues of the water.

Fantastic image Arash! Love the colours, pose, BG.

Excellent incoming pose and sharp details.

This is great! Tack sharp and love the light and the way the legs are separated from one another.
I would love a sliver more on the bottom,
Gail

Great pose, lovely light
superb details and i love the water colour here

Crazy good flight image of this species...but it all started with the great light quality. For me, the composition rocks as is. That is an incredible amount of focal length to capture a small(ish) bird in flight like this. Just curious how much of the original frame this represents.

Super detail as to be expected from you and I love the position of those feet. Nice light and creamy smooth blue bg.

Thanks everyone,

Shawn this was about 80% of the full frame.

WOW! Awesome capture, just pops from the sweet BG, great lighting and flight position.
