    Cheryl,

    That is the best in flight shot of a Marbled Godwit I have seen. Really enjoy every bit of it.

    And you're right, I was really hoping for the rain to go away this weekend as I was hoping to make one last trip to Tampa for some shooting before the big move. :(

    Hi Cheryl,
    This is a terrific shot. I don't think I have seen a nicer flight shot of a marbled godwit.
    Great light and IQ. I like how he/she is skimming over the water.

    How cool! I do feel that a bit more sharpening to the face area could be good, but all else is top-notch!

    What a beautiful flight shot of this Godwit. I love the underwing detail in particular.

    How good is that !?! Light and sharpness and detail perfect I think, and like how you have filled the frame with such good quality, very nicely done Cheryl.

    I presume rain is a problem over your way atm, but the subdued light from I guess overcast skies has made this image expose nicely

    A little late to the party but had to stop by to say "Great capture". I love BIF stuff and you keep putting out some very nice shots Cheryl. This one is great and one I would be proud to have in my files.
    Techs and details look very nice.
    Way to sling that big rig around too.
    Well done.

    Ditto what Doug said! Nice to see the underpinnings of that wing lit up. Agree on a tad more sharpening to the head only.
