    I like the wing position, sharpness, exposure, BG and trailing long legs. I would crop a little tighter. I would like to see one of these birds. Excellent image Lyle!

    Excellent. Tough exposure, well done with sharp details.

    Nice down wing position captured, Lyle. Love to see the colour of the eye.

    Lyle,

    I like the light and the relative position of this one over your previous image. If you have the IQ, just a bit of a tighter crop would be nice to see.

    Great shot.
    Very nice soft light, wonderful background, and love the flight pose.
    Another vote for a tighter crop.
    Well done.
