    This is just killer, Alan! Best flight shot of a Sharpie I have seen. I wish I was there with you again.

    Great looking frame Alan! The pose is awesome as it displays the Sharpies wings perfectly. The techs and details look great too. That owl decoy setup sure gets you some nice shots. Very nice.

    This is an over-the-top image, Alan. The light and pose are just out of this world. I'm with Arash on a little more sharpening.
