    Jon:

    Sharp, well exposed, great wing display, nice eye. Good diagonal in frame.

    Angling just a bit away from us to my eye.

    I could see some mild cropping variations, and might try a sliver off the top, to move him higher in the frame, strengthen the sense of climbing, and maybe some balancing tweaks.

    Cheers

    Great shot, not easy to catch them in flight. Love the wing position and fine details. I would crop a bit from left and above. TFS

    Besides the bird going away a bit, the shot is great. Lots of nice feather detail and the eye is clear and sharp. Nice looking extended wing position too. Now you just need one angling towards you. Good job.

    Hi Jon, great wing display of the near wing, and the light is cast perfectly on the eye. Seeing that he is flying slightly upwards, I would take some off the bottom.
