Took this in SoCal with Dave S and Ann P. I wish this had been against a non sky BG but it is what it is!
Canon 1DX
600 mm and 1.4x ( I am not changing to Nikon despite the recent trend!)
ISO 640 SS 1/2500 F 7.1
Crop ~60%FF, usual LR sliders, levels and USM to JPEG. I lightened up the area on the back.
Comments and critiques are always appreciated and learned from with thanks,

Hi Gail,
Love the banking pose and sharpness all around on the bird is terrific. Nicely composed and well exposed. Very nice frame.

Gail I could tell you took this shot even if your name was not on it. It just has Gail written all over it (also literally in the bottom right of the frame :w3). I have said it many times. You just seem to get the perfect pose, the perfect light or have the feeling in your shots that I really love. Beautiful details and a great banking pose. This is just so nice.
Beautiful! Good head angle, sharp, and a nice banking pose that shows the green feathers in the wings. Bravo.
Oh ya Beauty...Brilliant Gail. Great flight pose, great colours, and great HA. Love it
Well done

Gail - as the others have said, the HA and banking pose look great. I like the detail in the feathers and bill, and I think the subject is placed nicely in the frame. Thanks for sharing.
Oh yeah!!! fabulous, pose is tops. and IQ tops, and, and, and, .... super shot girl!
Very nice. I don't mind the blue sky background. Pose is great.
Gail, Déjà vu. I have this almost exact shot except with the 500 and 1.4x.
What's not to like, great colors, unique wingspan and nice blue sky.

A real beauty Gail! I like the pose, IQ, details and composition. Top notch as usual.
Superb! Colours, pose, details, Canon, everything!:bg3:
Really nice! Only can echo what all others have said -- great pose, details, and the colors are just wow. TFS
