    These are fast little bullets. Nice job catching him in flight, and with good eye contact, and the mouthful of food tops it off. Well done. Could be my eyes, but the whole image looks just a tiny bit greenish to me.

    Hi William, nice flight shot, well positioned and excellent timing with the wings outstretched and food in the beak. I might suggest you drop the WB and nudge things more to the left, cooler, as you then get some blue sky as well.

    You really nailed this one William. Good work. I agree with others that there is scope for adjusting the 'colour'. I wonder if setting the WB on the white flank in direct sunshine would do the trick (assuming it should be pure white, which it may not be of course). Cheers, Ian.
