Willet touchdown

[Bill Dix]

This is two frames after yesterday's Willet post, taken a few weeks ago at Ding Darling. On this one he fully extended his near wing and turned his head slightly for Artie's benefit. I'm not sure which of the two I like better. Your thoughts?

Very nice, Bill. Love the detail in the under wing.

This one works really well for me and I liked the other one.
Excellent timing, very nice touchdown.

[John Cooper]

They are both excellent captures Bill and I would be very proud to have both of them on my HD. Personally though I err towards your previous post with the legs ready for touch-down.

[Alan Murphy]

Great frozen action with excellent water color.

[Marina Scarr]

Great water color. Haven't seen the other image, but love this wing position and splash!!!

I think I like this one the best.
Great wing position and timing is perfect.

Very nice again. Like the wing position best on this one and the legs on the first one. Very clear and lots of detail. One to be proud of. I shoot allot of BIF and this is great!
