Hi Phil how's it going? you have got a great shutter speed catching some very nice detail, must try flying birds, and if I can get one as good as this I would be very pleased.

Hi Phil,
I like this image a lot.
The OOF kite on the pole in the BG adds a nice element to the image and is well placed in the RUC.
The kite is sharp and I like the layered BG of greens and browns.
My only issue with this image is the horizontal wires of the fence. I would clone or blend these into the BG as they really pull the eye away from the beautiful kite,

Nice pose with the wing and tail spread and food in the talons. Love the OOF bird. Horizontal lines a tad distracting and I agree with Gail on blending them in if your ethics allow.
I could see a slight crop from the left and that much added to the right if you have it.
Very nice image Phil.

You got a great pose from the kite, and I like the landscape in the BG. But those fence wires really do detract from an otherwise excellent image.
