    Jan, that is a pretty,pretty bird and you have captured a nice pose.

    I feel that the image lacks overall sharpness and there seems to be some noise in the BG.

    I know how difficult it is to shoot from a boat. But using a 1DX you could have used a higher ISO to give
    you a higher shutter speed and an out and out winner.

    What a terrific display!!! Great perch, BG and colors. In a perfect world, I would have liked to see a better wing position but overall a very nice image.

    LOvely pose, bg and perch. A really nice display from the bird. I am also thinking a higher ss would have tightened things up a bit.
