Fine dynamic image, Ian. I think the shutter speed was a tad too slow. I don't mind the blurred wings, but the head and eye seem slightly blurred, or maybe I just need another cup of coffee! The image also seems a bit dark on my monitor as the whites look slightly gray. The latter is easily fixed.

nice pose but the image is very blurry.

Nice pose but it looks a bit soft to my eyes.
Terrific action but for me it needs to be sharper or conversely more blurred. I am not sure that the filter has added to the image, has it perhaps given the effect of making it a little grainy?
Love the pose. Face looks fairly sharp with a little motion blur.... What NIK filter(s) did you run? On the whole image? The oof focus ?? in the lower right is a distraction for me.
