Hi Chris, I really like the detail on the kite, sharp, and the colour of the BG compliment the YBK nicely.

Looking at your Exif, this must have been giants castle.

Excellent detail, great looking bird, the BG is awesome.

Excellent flight pose and sharp details.

The light and the eye and BG are awesome.
I am not fond of that particular wing position although the shadow of the head is kinda cool.
I wonder if you could pull out some more detail out of the tail.
It is a pity about the HA ,

Very nice light Chris! In an ideal world....they shadows wouldn't be there (mostly on the tail for me) but all in all a very nice image!
