    Great banking pose and nice light. Love the wing position, fanned tail and head turn. I wish the whole background were only the water. You obviously have no control over of this.

    Love the sharpness and the dorsal view. Maybe a crop off each side for more of a 3X2 vertical look. I like the included sand. Vertical or horizontal original?

    Hi Michael, Beautiful banking pose. I love seeing these young ones fly. Excellent exposure and details. I wish the white water went below the wing tip.

    Lovely image, Michael, tack sharp with spot on exposure. Love that pose and the BG and comp work well for me.
