    Great job on the exposure, Jody. It's the most detail I've ever seen in a PM shot. Beautiful.

    The things you do with these super fast birds is amazing. The only thing that isn´t completely perfect about this shot is the bill merging with the wings. Am still in awe and would take this in a heartbeat! Well done
