I liked the blue sky and touch of cloud in this image. Alligator Farm capture.

Hi Susan Sure was a treat !!!!

Excellent image I like the exposure and under wing detail Did not listed the exposure compensation but do like it. Avoided shadows and did not blow the whites. Must have been early with soft light. I like the building material and how the eye is totally visible !!!!

Beautiful image, Susan! The bird is dead on but have you thought about deepening the blue just a tad to set the bird off a little more? Just a thought...

Real fine image. Love how you captured the detail in the white undersides.

[Chris van Rooyen]

Great sharpness and posture, would prefer slightly more contrast. Would suggest you go to Image - Adjustment - Exposure - adjust the Gamma to 0.97 to enhance the contrast.

Good action and nice light under the wings

HI Susan,

Lovely details in the whites and you did well with the wings, excellent timing.

I like it Susan. The sky color looks good to me. Eye contact is likewise good. Not sure how I shake out on increased contrast. I'd have to see it first.
