    Excellent flight pose of curlew you have captured.
    Love the pose with nice wing position, beautiful colors,sharpness, HA and composition.
    Very nice multicolored background and composition too.Image is little brighter on my monitor.

    Regards,
    Satish.

    Very nice Jim,
    The BG looks like a Monet painting.
    Wings look tack sharp with great fine detail. Belly looks quite bright and I would tone it down.
    To my eye, the bird is tack sharp except for the eye area.
    A beautiful image,
    Gail

    Terrific shot.
    Excellent flight pose, wonderful background, and great comp.
    Agree with Gail on the mid section of the bird being a tad to bright.
    Well done.

    Great banking pose against great painterly background. Has the colour of the bird been changet due to the ambient light available at the time of shooting? (early morning maybe?)

    Nice banking pose. Not an easy bird to get right and you did well. Yes to a bit bright but otherwise a fine capture.

    excellent dynamic pose and a nice BG. I agree it looks a tad bright on my end too.
