    Superb flight shot. Very nice HA, wing position and colours. I am not sure but whites looks bit blow out on chest and near wing, looks like imaged in harsh light .
    Love the golden eye, water and composition.

    Regards,
    Satish.

    Great that you even got the bird in the frame. These guys are fast.... How large a crop? The harsh light, sharpest focus on the breast with the bird angling away are big problems... Same with the big shadow on the left underwing, that the result of the sun being so high.
